Hi John,

No, I haven't had the nerve to open it up yet. Maybe I'll do that.

It went dead on me for the second day in a row today. It also did it =
once or twice a couple weeks ago. I only called Dave C. late this =
afternoon, so he's only been AWINH (absent when I need him) for about =
four hours - probably shouldn't jump on him to bad just yet!

I just thought that, the fabulous resources as they are on this here =
piano list, I would submit a post and find out all I need to know =
quicker than one could clip a connector on backwards!

I kinda need to have it fixed before I tune on the cruise ships again - =
hard to plug it into those European-type receptacles - but I guess I =
could just shove a couple bare wires in there..........   ;-)

  Have you had it apart?
  Are the individual cells viewable?
  It might just be one bad cell, that is sucking down all the rest. =
Individual cells should be available at Radio Shack, and could just be =
substituted. Don't use too big a soldering iron, and watch the polarity.
  I should open mine up, and have a boo. The manual does say battery =
packs are available, and user replaceable.
  Not like Dave, not to reply.=20
  It would be interesting to know, how many people have replaced their =
battery packs.

  jrpiano@win.eastlink.caHas anyone replaced a Verituner Battery? It =
uses the following battery pack: Rechargeable Nickel metal Hydride =
(MiMH) battery pack: 10 x 1.2V cell NiMH pack series-configured 4000maH, =
10K thermister, AMP connector #640250-3. Yikes, what a mouthful.

        Is that something I can buy at Radio Shack or some other =
electronics-type store?

        Any info would be appreciated.

        I've tried contacting Dave Carpenter, but haven't had any luck =
getting through yet.

        Terry Farrell
