Any machine that runs on nicads, they are suspect until checked for
leakage and charged. Often they develope internal shorts that render
them impossible to charge in the machine. Replacement is the best course
in most cases.
I thought this machine just used regular batteries. (I guess it could run
on nicads as well, but doesn't require them). At any event, there were
four regular Duracell alkalines (not working) in the machine when I bought
it.
Or, are their other batteries buried somewhere inside the case?
