Just picked up a Nomad this week. It's in nice condition, and included the 6 AA battery pack. I have a bunch of rechargeable batteries, but I might get this modern pack they make for it once I see how bad the battery life is with the current one.

I took it apart to clean it all up and swap out the scratched up lens with a new glass one, and I was pleased with how clean everything was. Nothing appeared to be leaking or out of order.

The original screen is as good as you can hope for with one of these, which is of course, not great. Haha. So I'll probably put in a modern LCD or TFT at some point. Even just a cheap one off alliexpress or somewhere will be an improvement on a mid-90s screen. I've done a few Gameboys over the years, so I think I can probably handle it.
