I just found out that Radio Shack has now officially "devalued" their Portable CD Player Power Pack. This unit was originally priced at $40.00. Now they are going for $1.00 (one dollar). I love these things. I have been using a couple of them with my portable DAT player for a couple of years. They claim up to 20 hours of run time and enough charges to replace 5,000 alkaline batteries. The output is 3 - 4.5v. It recharges with any 4.5v wall wart. It even mentions "mini-disc players" on the casing. If you are lucky enough to find one for a buck, buy it. That is a bargain even if you use it for a paper weight. I am not sure about the shelf life so those that remain in the stores could be nearing the end but . . . Jim Lee -- ================================================================== James S.
