    best of both worlds

    The wisdom behind the approach for powering the Chromatic is probably lost on non-modders, but like other aspects of the overall design it's the product of experience. The power core enhances that design by letting it support traditional AA batteries or a for-Chromatic rechargeable option. It's kept up with my play so far, so battery quality seems to be there too. The only thing I would think of changing is redoing the core shell so it's openable, letting you replace the cells inside if they die.
