I have a 29C, with recharging problems. I'm hoping the battery packs
are similar. How did you get the back cover on the battery pack to stay
on after you cut it off?

I just cut the plastic between the batteries enough so I could
screwdriver out the AA batteries one at a time and replace them with
the standard AA nicads.
