Being able to take the thing outside without a power cord would be nice though, although you're already limited by the necessity of a wifi connection. OTOH, perhaps the thing didn't run very long on batteries with the VFD and the Wifi radio and that's another reason why they left them out. Nice addition to the system and another sign that SD listens to their users.
