I will be on a cruise to Alaska in August. Will my PTR1 be able to be
charged from the ship's electrical system?

There are many such devices available that have rechargable batteries in them and then universal voltage selection and connector features to let you drive most standard equipment. However, the obvious solution is to just avoid using compact disks and the micro drive. When I want to go portable I stick to my flash drive. In this manner I consistantly get between 9-12 hours of play time on a single charge. You just have to remember to rip the CDs to flash before you go on the road.

Yes, the battery pack for off-the-shelf batteries would be helpful.Welighterinquired when we bought our PTR1 quite some time ago about having a 12-volt adapter so the PlexTalk could be plugged into a cigaretteoutlet in a car. At least you wouldn't have to run out of batterywhenlistening on road trips or have to plug it in all night to get a veryfewmore hours. We were told at the time that there was no such animal...OK,goodso I'm paraphrasing... and that using an adapter, such as from Radio Shack, even if it was rated and polarized properly, would not be aidea. I don't know why this should be such a touchy issue. Eitherthethebattery pack or the 12-volt adapter or both would be very useful accessories to have.
