I hope this or something becomes standard to reduce suffering for people in future, the conditions/diseases are bad enough without this adding to the stress and anxiety. Thx for all your feedback!
I remember from prior discussions that the battery is VERY expensive. Not very good marketing in my opinion. They aren't selling razor blades.
