Hi Jim and friends,
So there really isn't any harm in letting someone else work to
change the battery in the BrailleNote? I would so much rather
have someone local do it, and last I new we do have a Batteries
Plus in our city. They can make the exact battery you need, and,
I wonder if they might even be able to make a better one. Well,
I'm trying to be a lot more careful with my battery in the
BrailleNote now. I've had it a year, and hope to use this
battery a lot longer. The one time I'd really want to replace it
would be if I went somewhere for a couple of days where I
wouldn't have access to electricity. But it's nice that the
battery charges up so fast, as I could possibly do it in an
airport. And the car converters would probably work too, right?
I hope that Humanware will realize the terrible problems we
BrailleNote users have when we have to be without our units for
six to eight weeks to replace a battery. What were they
thinking?
Linda

Subject: [Braillenote] Battery life and replacement
Hey, Linda, and all, I had the batteries in my voicenote
m-power replaced this past March by Batteries Plus a chain of
stores. maybe you can find one in your area. If you want, write
me off list and I will give you the contact info in my area for
the Batteries Plus in Dublin, California that is, or you can just
call information and get it for them. Nevertheless, in my case,
the replacement worked fine. Only thing is, you have to be sure
and Turn Off BlueTooth, Before you do the recalibration. The
cost was approx $54 whereas HumanWare will charge you, well let's
just say, a whole lot more money! Good luck! Jim
