Am I correct to think that I cannot connect the PB5300c to mains
power when a
battery is in the bay?
Short of shipping a VST charger from the states is there a mod that
can be
performed to the circuitry to enable safe charging within the unit?
Does anyone have any experience with APC NiMH replacement batteries?
thanks,
