Has anyone read the review under this weather station, appears someone has found a way to add a limited battery backup to the HD display. I am tempted to try this out and see how it goes.

That's a great find! Someone took some good pics and provided excellent labeling.

Ok, that is a great find dhageremtp.  I just need to figure out that surface mount battery holder part number, and I am going to give it a shot also.  Would be great mod, and if I could get rid of the white UPS supply under the living room coffee table my wife would be happy.

Edit:  HEY!!  That part number is right there in the review...  Glad it wasn't a rattle snake or anything...
