Ah, you have fingered what was its real problem. Excessive battery usage, even when not switched on. I got mine cheap at a liquidation sale for a fifth of the new price. My needs were simple and it was wonderful portable. Didn’t mind the rather dull greenish screen, which actually stopped noisy commuters from reading my documents (it was a bit of a novelty back then). Did everything I needed and down loaded my docs to computer became easily routine. If only Casio had engineered the power / battery set up better … it may have been considered a classic instead of a paperweight !!
A power supply suitable for the current and voltage can be found. It works for a very short time with batteries. If it is to be used with batteries, high amperage quality batteries should be preferred.
Одна проблема... новые батарейки съедал за 6-7 часов... а зарядка не прилагалась... даже разъём не предусмотрен. Линейка таких карманных компьютеров называлась HandHeld. Причем на 5 лет раньше до появления, привычных теперь, SmartPhone.
Good job🎉
I have one of these. I wish I could find a wall adapter for it. Also software to run on it. It eats through batteries like mad.

Yes, it was very low on battery. Dock model improvements were made in later models
