Crazy design ! Why do Brother use low capacity AAA instead of Lithium rechargeable batteries. How about using 3x 10440 Lithium rechargeable batteries with 3x dummy batteries instead of 6x AAA batteries ?
@@Vector_Ze I prefer 18650 batteries. Two should do the trick but consumer electronic products generally use AA or AAA batteries. So instead of using AA batteries, I use the 14500 lithium batteries instead.
@@PleaseGetReal A single 18650 would run this device under normal usage for a year. Please be aware that the lithium cells, even though the same physical size, have more than double the voltage and a lot of devices are not designed to handle that. You can fry them. This is the danger of having the same physical size with completely different chemistry. 18650s are always 3.7 volts (fully charged), yes even 14500s. You can still use rechargeable batteries with those devices by using NiMH cells, which have the same 1.5 voltage. So far as 18650 cells are concerned, any device designed to use them clearly will be designed to handle the higher voltage. When I'm shopping for anything battery powered I go out of my way to find those that can accept 18650s. I'm not always successful, but am quite often.
Mine is stuck on 1) label. Moves to 2) but I cannot add text to 2). WHAT am I doing wrong. I cannot even add a new text. I’ve tried turning off, backspace, escape, etc all to no avail! 🥲
OK so when I plug my name in it doesn’t matter the plugs I have bought so many of them. It doesn’t work unless I use batteries.

I'd go for a single 18650.

@@Vector_Ze I know,,,, That's why I use one or two dummy AA cells if I have to use 14500 batteries to replace AA cells.
