Hi Virgie, one thing we are looking at is an external battery pack for
secondary use that will connect to the AC adaptor outlet. I can't give an
estimate as to when this might be done right now but it is certainly under
investigation.

Hi Terry,
I was not talking so much about having to replace your batter, I was
talking
about having an extra battery to put in when your regular battery needed
charging.
Maybe it does not make sense to you but I think it would be a good option
to
have.
I would be willing to pay for that privelege.

And I thought I was a cynic. I suspect though that there is another
reason why they are not removable. I don't think they are making any
money doing it in fact I bet it is a pain. 95 per hour to have someone
sit there and pull the units apart isn't cost effective at all. Since I
have never opened the unit and looked inside I don't know however
suspect that the redesign would cost more money course then we could all
complain about that cost. I have had my units both of them for over
three years and never replaced the batteries.

Virgie,
Trust me. It won't be offered because it's a money issue! do you think
these companies will willingly give up money? come on. they're out there
to gouge you to death like an angry bull with a matador chasing after
him! It's more than the battery issue that needs attention. Isaac

Hi Isaac,
Just because this option does not exist now doesn't mean that it can't
ever be offered. If we cannot replace the battery now, then perhaps
Humanware needs to take a look at fixing the battery charging problem.
I know this is probably a difficult problem to fix, and I am not being
critical, but this issue needs to be addressed in my opinion.
Thanks,
Virgie Underwood
