I'm using accumulators (you called rechargable batteries) because a lot of
toys are using mignon batteries and so I have about 20 rechargable batteries
and a processor charger for loading these in a short time...
The problem of this rechargable batteries is that this batteries have a
voltage of about 1.25 V. Normal batteries have a voltage of 1.5 V. In the
cybermaster are used 6 batteries (=> 6 x 1.5 V = 9 V). If I use rechargable
batteries so the Voltage is very low (=> 6 x 1.25 V = 7.5 V).
I have no problems in running downloadet programms but in connection to PC...
Regards
Falk
