Well, I get paid today so I will get a battery for my infokey, assuming Wal-Mart has them!

They do, Jeremy. It's just one of the standard watch batteries.

They didn't for me. You need a 3 volt lithium disk and that is not so common.
I went to Radio Shack finally and got it. ($5)

Well the mall will be closed by the time I get off work, I'll see what I can do, otherwise I'll swing by Radio Shack tomorrow!

I found that drug stores tend to carry them.

So, today I went to Radio Shack during my lunch break and picked up a battery. I have yet to test the time and date, but I am sure that will be fixed, but I must say, it makes a huge difference. Since replacing the infokey battery, the Segway is much more responsive (speeds up quicker, slows down quicker, turns better, etc.). On top of that, it does not speed above 12.5 anymore (it did that frequently before and very easily). Thank you all for the advice, it has made a huge difference!

This made me laugh. Your segway doesn't work this way. It is like saying that your car goes faster after you fill it with gas.

Interesting, well it seemed to work that way!

That's silly! My car is slower with a full tank of gas due to the weight increase!
