RE: Stylus battery holder.....
We have more battery holders on order and should be seeing them any day now. I'll try to come back and post when they become available.

RE: Stylus battery holder.....
Thanks mike.....I have soldered fresh NIMH batteries into my Stylus holder in the past but the life of the batteries was disappointing.....I suspect the soldering is not a good idea. It was my plan to use the 95048 holder which is a spring-loaded holder and thus avoid the soldering. I wonder if the spring-loaded holder is a good idea.......any chance of corrosion and loss of power? I wonder if you would comment on this?

We solder them here. We use a different technique that does not damage the cell internally, thus it still gives good performance. It's REALLY easy to damage nimh and nicd cells with a soldering iron. We've killed quite a few.
The spring battery holders are ok, just clean them once in awhile.
The radio will work on 3 cell lipo so many people are adapting a 3 cell lipo into the radio battery holder.
