## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this a rechargeable battery?**
A: Yes.  This battery is rechargeable.

**Q: Does it work as a replacement for both 72200 and 72300 battery model?**
A: No.  While similar in size and ratings, the terminals on the 72200 are positive on both ends and negative on the side tab.  The 72300 does not have a side tab so the terminals are positive on one end and negative on the other.

**Q: Insert Panic! I just put the battery into my otoscope, and i think i foolishly put it in upside down. Now it's stuck, and ideas how to get it out?**
A: The Welch Allyn 72200 battery is designed so that either end is positive and the side tab is the negative contact so you shouldn't be able to put it in upside down.  The side tab is often made to have a little extra protrusion to keep the battery from sliding and/or coming of the wall of the handle (the inside wall of the handle serves as the negative contact).  If, as in your case, the battery fits too tightly in the handle, you can hold a sturdy bag over the bottom of the handle with the top off and snap the handle with a whipping motion so that the battery is flung into the bag.

    Works but be careful of your specific model, requires modification for the #72300
  

*by E***E on Reviewed in the United States on 20 August 2020*

Be careful what battery your model requires. Mine uses a battery that is more like your normal AA battery with a +Positive  and -Negative terminal on each end. This battery as a +Positive terminal on the top and a +Positive  terminal on the bottom, the -Negative terminal is actually a tab that comes out of the bottom edge and is bent up the side. If you have a typical +/- you can easily modify this battery to work with yours. Simply put some electrical tape over the bottom then peel the tab (the negative terminal) down and fold over the bottom. This will alter the battery to have the correct configuration.  NOTE the battery I received was the #72000. If you you need the #72300 and do not make this modification you could damage your otoscope by shorting it out.

    Battery not fitting in
  

*by T***H on Reviewed in the United States on 15 June 2023*

I bought 2 batteries to store as back up and now I am trying to to put the batteries in and they do not fit. These are new batteries and I have never used them before. The return window is closed but I want to be refunded for this purchase. Please respond back to me. I have to give it 1 star to send the review but I will change the rating when I get refunded.
