Pascal, My solution is the bite the bullet and use the 2CR batteries (we can find them for about $5 a pop here in the U.S.). But did you miss the statement about the rechargeable unit that goes on the bottom of the Winder R8? That's what I'm planning to get. I can live with it until then, since my employer buys my batteries. :-) The Power Pack MW-R8 will solve the battery problem with the winder. I would hope the motor has a rechargeable unit too. Especially if it can be dropped in the same recharge "dock." ========== Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch There is a pleasure in being mad in which none but mad men know.
