Spare Battery Charger/Power Backup Feature

The spare battery pack can also be used to replace a drained handset battery, ensuring uninterrupted use.The spare battery pack is optional and purchased separately.

When using the VT5831 during Power Backup mode, audio quality may be compromised due to reduced Power availability.
