Shimano Di2 Maintenance?

Notices
Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Because Shimano techs are telling dealers it destroys batteries?

Since there is no charging port on a Shimano internal battery, how are you going to make that work?

A bit of an oversight for a USB charger then.
