RE: Battery in a model 150 -- MIDRANGE-L

And for trivia purposes, the "mini" AS/400 9401 has its batteries in a
3-pack of AA's behind the covers.  Looked like a Radio Shack project
gone professional.

That's your guy.  I've replaced a couple of those in the last year. I've
gotten mine from Batteries Plus so if your drugstore doesn't have them,
these guys will. If you don't have them around, Radio Shack is another
good option.
