Default HP camera recall

HP has to recall over 600,000 units sold during the past two years in its Photosmart R707 line and nearly a quarter of a million of those are in the US. The fix only requires you to download firmware that will tell the camera not to charge a nonrechargeable battery and thus cause dangerous overheating.

Why would anyone try to charge a nonrecharagable battery anyway?

Technologies haven’t advance to its maximum yet in my opinion as we have still left to see a lot like recharging something that is not chargeable.
