The ones I have are allegedly regulated to 13.4v. I'd be happier with 13 or 13.2. Either my voltmeter is broken, or they can go well above 13.4v. I don't see any sign of regulation, just a 12v transformer that puts out decreasing current with increasing voltage. It's a pity, because a 13v

How much work do you think it takes to NOT change phones every 2 years? With the provider Craig and I use, paying them every 3-12 months is easy. Changing phones can often be a hassle. But it sounds like Craig's hassle was compensated for with a 200 hour airtime gift. Mitch. > On April 20,

I was wondering how you got to 16k. So it was a glitch and should have been 4k? It used to be that transfers over 1100 required human intervention. That hasn't been the case for me, but all my recent transfers have been from phones that didn't store the airtime in the phone itself. Around 2013
