minus-squarelightnsfw@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·9 months agoYou can use rechargeable batteries in it… Built in rechargeable batteries suck. The entire lifespan of the device is tied to that battery. Give me something that runs on AAs any day.
minus-squareMario_Dies.wav@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·9 months agoGood point. I should invest in some rechargeable batteries and a unit. I think I even have my old CD player around here somewhere…
minus-squarelightnsfw@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·9 months agoEneloop is a great brand for them.
minus-squareMario_Dies.wav@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·9 months agoThanks for the recommendation! My God, they’re expensive, but I imagine it’s worth it to get some good ones.
minus-squarelightnsfw@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·9 months agoI have some from like 10 years ago that are still going. The Amazon ones I bought in the mean time are all dead.
