Replacing Battery with dead backup cell
My 3Xi has a failed backup battery. I have read much on replacing it myself, or sending it for repair.
At the moment, its not a big deal, but I do want to buy a new main battery, and would like to know if its okay to plug the device into the charger, and pull out the main battery, to replace it. Its not the end of the world if I lose everything, just wondering if that would save me the trouble of reloading since the backup is bad?
I ask because I know some electronics don't like to have the power cord plugged in when there is no battery, maybe for loading or regulating, but either way, will it hurt the Axim if I run it off the power cord, without the main battery installed.
Anyone done this?
Thanks
John
