It's not new, and hasn't been updated in a while, but you're right, it's a very nice site.

Hi, I think it was also this site where I first came across the caution on powering up woodstock era (HP 21-29c) calculators w/o their batteries, viz: "Unfortunately, the construction of the [woodstock] calculators provided for the uneven heating of the batteries during charging, leading to premature battery wear. The design of the charging circuit also made it possible for the calculator to receive excessive voltage when a battery pack was not properly inserted, causing the calculator's sensitive MOS circuits to fail." ...although I don't think the above caution is unique to the rskey.org site. ...b
