Hi. Potentially someone can make a new battery pack, I have had one of these done in the past and it worked well but it isn't always guaranteed as it can cause problems with the charging circuits. What is the default talking book player on RNIB these days? The shop seems to sell fairly expensive models.

Currently the machine does not have a battery. When I switch it on, it tells me there is a problem with the battery and that I should disconnect the A C adaptor. This indicates that the machine must always have a battery in it in order to work. I have telephoned Sight and Sound, and they tell me that they can no longer get the battery. I am, therefore, asking if anyone has a battery for the PTN 1 which they no longer need. If I cannot source one, then the machine will have to go in the bin, which seems a shame as it looks to be in good condition.
