Why doesn’t the headset have a built-in rechargeable battery?
1.) Rechargeable batteries have a limited life. When they no longer work the headset would need to be repaired in order to replace the internal battery. 2.) When a rechargeable battery is drained, the headset no longer works and you’ll have to plug it into a charger. If this happens in the middle of a game, it can be very frustrating. With AAA batteries, you can just swap in a fresh pair and get back to the game. 3.) Using a pair of rechargeable AAA batteries instead of the alkaline batteries offers the same benefit as having a built-in rechargeable battery, with the convenience of always having a charged set for quick replacement. 4.) A built-in rechargeable battery and recharger would make the headset more expensive than buying a separate recharger and rechargeable AAA batteries.
