    What's the deal with 18V preamps, that just seems a total annoyance :/

      Fender use 18v circuits for their active basses. Never had any problems withe the two that I have..

      But I'm thinking that if ONE of the two batteries gets a bit meh, it's going to drag voltages all over the place, and it has all the scope for mix loading the two cell packs and asking for them to leak.

      A 9V battery is already 6 cells in series wrapped in foil, so you can't really escape that!

      Yeh, that's a fair point, and it's not like it's a 40C drain on the things, so I'm being a bit precious, I just KNOW I'll end up with one too few batteries at the crucial moment.

      Nothing for it, I'll have to go high end and get a bass with a rechargeable lipo in it which will deffo never burn my house down.
