Franklin Electronic Holy Bible B-o-o-k-m-a-n KJB 640

Perhaps a prayer to your Lord will solve the problem?
Perhaps even a real bible is better? I would not trust all the electronic stuff of my beliefs.

That would depend on the model of your Franklin reader. Some, like the KJB-1440, take two CR2032 batteries. Others, like the KJB-1840, take four AAA batteries.
If the batteries are long and skinny, they're AAAs. If they're flat like coins, they're CR2032s.

Simple. Hold the niv device in your right hand. Stand up. Walk to the nearest garbage can. Drop the niv into the garbage can. Take the garbage to the curb. Go to eBay and purchase a real Bible, the Franklin KJB-640, the actual Word of God, AKA, The King James Bible. Best electronic Bible ever made.

Problem Solved.

See? That really was simple, wasn't it?

Remove the five screws from the back of the Bible, gently separate the front from the back of the Bible with a flat blade screwdriver. Note, when the Bible is apart be as careful as you have ever been in your life with the display and especially with the flat cable connected to the display, or you might accidentally cause a void line to permanently appear in the display when you get it back together. Gently remove the rubber keypad. Take a Q-tip swab or two with some rubbing alcohol and gently clean all of the black contacts on the back of the keypad and also where the contacts touch against the circuit board. Make sure that you clean every one of them leaving no specs of dust or cotton on anything. Also leave none on or near any part of the display or window or you will be looking at these for the next ten years while you read the powerful Word of God. This has worked for me several times, but I own three of them, and still have the first one I purchased new about twenty years ago. The Frankin KJB-640 is by far the best electronic Bible ever made and nothing has since come remotely close. KJB stands for King James Bible. Any other so called version belongs in the garbage can. Trust me on this one, and read the Bible daily, or continue being completely miserable for the rest of your life.

Marlene, My parents also gave us the KJ-21, about 1988, then costing $250. Still works great. Love it. Franklin.com. Response: "Unfortunately, the KJ-21 is no longer available. The current model is the KJV-570." Checked site for price: about $50. Don't know if it does same as KJ-21. Brother gave me KJV-450. Won't even go directly to "Jesus wept."
