hello jenny, sorry, i didn't see your post. since we can now use the braille plus for many different things with the new features, it's probably best that whenever possible we keep the unit plugged in. as long as this doesn't harm the battery, i have no problem doing that.

Playing audio gets you more like 6.

Is it okay to charge the icon or braille plus in its case? I ask this because I notice the unit gets a little warm. Thanks.
