 "later discovered that Duracell’s non-rechargeable CP-1 battery can cause the camera to ignite when attached to an AC charger or other docking station"

Why would anyone charge a non-rechargable battery to begin with? DUH! If the docking station has an auto-charge function, that does not recognize what type of batter is installed, then there is an issue for those using non-rechargable batteries it would seem. Really poor design work on the part of the OEM manufacturer.

Horsepower is how fast you hit a wall.Torque is how far you will take the wall with you.
