The only charger you can use is Humanware's, because it has such
a high voltage. I found this out when my dad accidentally packed
my laptop's charger instead of my BrailleNote's for a trip to
Virginia. We tried going into Radio Shack and Batteries Plus,
but neither had a high enough voltage (3.6) charger to recharge
my BN.

"The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight. The
real problem is the misunderstanding and lack of education that
exists. If a blind person has the proper training and
opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a mere physical
nuisance."

Subject: Re: [Braillenote] need help ASAP, problem with battery
Hi,
Maybe you need to go to the Humanware site and order a new
battery.
Rechargeable batteries wear out eventually. If you had the same
one for
five years, it's about time for it to die.
Don't get a battery from Radio Shack; get it from Humanware. I'm
surprised you got a charger from Radio Shack. I'd think
Humanware would
want you to use their charger.
