This review is from: LeapFrog Leapster2 Recharging Station (Toy)

I contacted customer support because I needed two batteries (for my 2 boys) and didn't want 2 charging stations...waste of money! They replied with the following information!

"The replacement cost for Leapster 2 Recharger Battery Pack is $10 to cover shipping and handling.

You can purchase replacement parts by calling our Consumer Services department at 1-800-701-LEAP from 9am-10pm EST Monday- Friday and 9am - 5pm EST Saturday. A representative will be glad to take your order."

So those of you in need of 2 or more here you go!

This review is from: LeapFrog Leapster2 Recharging Station (Toy)

I purchased this recharging station for my daughters' two leapster 2 systems in hopes of saving money on batteries. After opening the product and contacting leapfrog I found that your are not able to purchase extra rechargeable battery packs. In order to get another pack, other than the one that comes with the recharging station, you have to purchase another recharging station. So if your looking to charge more than one leapster don't waste your money. Also I'm guessing once you've charge the battery the average 300 times the recharging station is no good because you can't purchase another battery pack without a new station. I wish I would have read reviews before purchasing.

This will only recharge the batteries approx. 300 times! After that it is useless! I had to throw mine out because it would no longer hold the charge. Save your money and just buy regular rechargeable batteries. They take less time to fully recharge AND they last longer (1,000 charges) AND they are MUCH cheaper! So, be green AND save money! Don't buy the recharger.
