Hi all.
Not sure if Panamatik still repairs and upgrades Woodstock models.
Can an easier to open battery door be assembled on the 25 and 29?
Also, I seem to recall that Panamatik highly enhances Woodstock models with more capabilities. Right?

Yes. See

(He has both E and LP upgrade/repair modules for Woodstocks, so be sure to check out the features of both to see which you prefer.)
Thanks! I’ll check it out.
I've done both the ACT replacement and the full LP upgrades. The LP takes more time, but the enhanced capabilities are wonderful!
The battery doors are a pain. You can buy or print 3D replacements.

The force needed to push down and open the battery case is a function of the springs pushing the batteries into the terminals. Use smaller springs that don't compress as much, or try slightly shorter 4/5th AA flat top Ni-MH batteries. Those make it very easy to open. Adjust springs accordingly for a good electrical contact.
