Isn't the memory battery backed? I had intended to get it to shut down
before the batteries go completely flat for this reason. I can then swap
battery packs(I am using external sealed lead acid batteries and the
internal batteries back this while I swap them over) and let it continue on
it's way.

I have worked out another approach, so this isn't an issue any longer. I
will just simulate a flat battery to the learning part of the software every
20-30 minutes. Then it will get a few chances at finding the charger.

Thanks
