With a battery in the seat post, or the frame, you never have to touch it after the install. Plug a USB compatible cable into the junction box to recharge. The battery never comes out.

And you can buy the seatpost with the battery installed. Most complicated part of the assembly is knowing that you need a little fork tool to plug the connectors in.
