A "Battery Operated" Update...

You may remember my recent product concerns about a battery charger that I had purchased from the Rayovac company.


I had written a letter to the company and sent it via e-mail.

I have since received a response.

With the sharing of a model number of the product in question I have received this final reply:

Some replacement batteries have been ordered for you and will be shipped at no charge. Please let us know if you still have problems with the new batteries and your charger.

We appreciate your use of Rayovac products. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.

Sincerely,

So, I am waiting to see if these batteries will fit/work in my battery charger.

If they do, I will be compelled to write another e-mail.

It will consist mainly of me wanting to know the following:

Why aren't these batteries sold in stores?

AND

Will I have to special order these batteries from now on?

AND

Are these batteries in danger of being discontinued?


I wonder how old these batteries are and if they are having to ship them in from overseas...

or something like that.

later...
