Stephanie- Thanks for the help.

I ahve a question regarding batteries. Someone told me to use:


L7367

Lithium Ion Battery, Replacement

L7368

Lithium Ion Battery Charger

as upcharge for the 2 batteries that are included in the base code because
those are not considered litium. Does that sound correct to you?

Thanks again, jeremy
