Lio by Mark Tatulli for April 01, 2018

No doubt an April Fool’s prank from Eva Rose.

I bet all those AAs are going to burn out very quick once Lio’s toy gets turned on.

Must have gotten it cheap.

Why AAs only? Such a pain in the posterior to load!

You get what you pay for, Lio.

Yes, but you get seven hours of operation out of those batteries. And if you buy rechargeables, you only get five hours, but good ol’ Dad is paying the electric bill to recharge them.

I now use Eneloop type rechargeable batteries. They hold a charge for a long time, so you can charge a bunch and use them when you need them. In 6 years, I have only had to throw 1 or 2 away for not charging.

Or 1,000 18650 size batteries.

Undoubtedly, a gift from the energizer bunny. Happy Easter.

Reminds me of this Mercedes runs on AA batteries: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0k1tbf8muMc

And imagine trying to find out which one battery has gone dead, thus making the whole thing not work. Oy …

Just be glad it’s not “D” cells….

I think I’d prefer the model with the 3500 foot extension cord….

The 10th thing at Christmas that’s such a pain to me: “Batteries not included”?!
