ANSWER Near the end of battery life, "1.5V" batteries can droop to about 1.1V, but still have some life left. (The curves are very different for different battery chemistries, so this is not always the case.) In other words, with a 4.5V adapter, the internal regulator works fine. With four batteries that have discharged below 1.1V, the internal regulator is probably near the minimum input voltage for operation.

What kind of batteries does the Leica Viper II Binocular Laser Range finder use?

The Vectronix Vector series binoculars / laser rangefinder uses a single 2CR5 battery but they should be "non-magnetic" and the manufacturer recommends Sanyo batteries. There is now a special adapter that allows 2x CR123A batteries to be used instead. This adapter was requested by the U.S.M.C. because CR123A batteries were a lot easier to find in the field when compared to 2CR5 batteries.
