I'd get the KDB and wait on the batteries. In all the times I have played careers, I don't seem to recall a time that I ran flat on batteries before I was killed.
Having ones with shorter recharge times, or are longer lasting, is great after 1942, but doesn't seem to come into play that much from 39 to 41.
The KDB, on the other hand, removes a sonar blindspot in your front, and reduces the one towards the rear. That is useful no matter what year you are in. Plus, its pretty cheap.
As for going for the Type IX's, I still don't see the fascination there. Sure, having a hefty torpedo load is great, but it takes freakin' forever to get to your patrol areas.
The VII is a perfect compromise between torpedo load, range, and manueverability. Unlike like the Seekuhs, I can actually 'dodge' wabos if I am paying attention.
