Comment (by dhopkins):

 On my beta-1 unit, one of the battery latches doesn't spring back to its
 locked position as easily, and gets stuck in the unlocked position. And it
 requires some dextarity to replace the battery, especially if both springs
 worked well. Would be good to design a battery latch that never opens
 accidentally, always latches properly, but is easy for kids (or spastic
 adults) to change batteries on purpose. (And I'd like a pony go with that,
 too ;-)
