I got Batteries Plus to replace the soldered in pack on my 
Braille n Speak and more recently, my old voicenote.  It cost 
around $55 for the Voicenote, only took several hours while we 
waited, and saved a bundle of money and time over what HumanWare 
would have charged.  73, Jim WA6EKS

Subject: OT:  braille lite 40 batteries

I have 2 Braille Lite 40s, one of which I use in the shack for =
notetaking.  I also use these for notes when I speak or preach.  
They're =
both in great shape except that they need new batteries.  I 
suspect that =
they are old enough to have the packs soldered in.  Do you know 
of =
anyone who does work on such things and can replace these 
batteries?  If =
possible, I'd like to avoid going through FS but there may be no

alternative.  Thanks and 73.  Lou  WA3MIX
