The clock may have a small battery that keeps it running, but that isn't
the same as what is required to have the booksense actually speak the
time. If you pull the main battery, the clock keeps on ticking, but
that is all that is running. If you push the time button, the booksense
won't speak or anything else. There are two different things going on
here. Do any of you remember some of the clock radios we use to have.
They required a 9v battery to keep the clock going if power went away or
if you unplugged the radio. All this 9 volt battery did was keep the
clock happy, nothing else was powered by it. I would guess the
booksense is similar. Don't you think they designed battery drain to be
a small as they could?

If what Raul said is true, that the clock uses a separate battery, then I do
not see how what Robert says can also be true, that the battery runs down
because of the clock.
I for one, am a bit confused at the moment; so I don't think the discussion
is quite over yet.
