Gary, First of all, please don't use all caps, it makes your messages hard to read. I've tried Nicads in my model 100 with very little success; they put out a slightly lower voltage than alkalines, and this makes for a very short life befor recharging. It was way more trouble than it was worth. Alkalines should have a very long life unless you are using the internal modem, so to me they are a better choice than Nicads. Maybe someone else has had better luck with Nicads than I have and they could give you some advice. The AC adaptor will not recharge the Nicads (or any other batteries) in the computer. RICH
