We've tried it. You can't have portable electronics without batteries. No matter how hard you push the power button, they just don't turn on. Without a battery, your laptop is just an expensive mirror with keys that do nothing. Your electric wheelchair is just a wheelchair. Your watch is just a bracelet. So when you need to make your electronics function, come here and get your replacement laptop and iPod batteries, sealed lead acid batteries, watch and hearing aid batteries and even your good old AAA through D batteries. Heck, we even have AAAA batteries. And when they come out with AAAAA batteries, we'll have those too.
