Hello Duane,

I would like to know the difference between the following options taking the Monaco as an example

7160-PR Monaco Power Recliner
7160-PRB Monaco Power Recliner w/ battery

I understand that the power recliners allow you to stop at any position and are less prone to wear and tear because of the a smoother action in changing positions. However what does is the difference between

Power Recliner w/ battery and without ?

What type of battery is this ?
What is the avg life of battery ?
No exploding batteries right ?
Is one option more maintenance than other?
What is the cost difference between the 2 options ?
Does the battery option still let you use a wired outlet if battery is down ?

Thank you.
