Michael is correct,
In fact here is a quote from the HP 91 manual and the HP 97 manual:
NOTE: OPERATING THE HP-91 (OR 97) FROM THE AC LINE WITH THE
BATTERY PACK REMOVED MAY RESULT IN WRONG OR IMPROPER DISPLAYS.
Although these are not as supseptable to the Woodstock power catastrophes, they were not designed to work without a FUNCTIONAL battery pack.
Cheers, geoff
added after the above posts:
as noted above, the hp 91 manual also does not mention damage, question is, should it have or was the statement in quotes above meant to discourage the use?
