I find that 3rd-party batteries for vintage laptops don't last very long. I tried one for a Thinkpad T40 many years ago, and the darn thing only ran 2 hrs max. But when I found a supplier of genuine IBM batteries, the replacement ran 4.5 hrs. Same size (cells). Big difference. -- Kad esat sagriezis maizi, to vairs nevarat salikt. --- TB(Stealth)/Win7 * Origin: nntp://rbb.fidonet.fi - Lake Ylo - Finland (2:221/360.0) SEEN-BY: 1/123 18/200 90/1 120/340 601 154/10 50 203/0 221/0 1 6 242 SEEN-BY: 221/360 226/16 30 227/114 702 229/101 426 452 664 981 1014 SEEN-BY: 230/0 240/5832 249/1 206 317 400 280/5003 317/3 322/757 335/364 SEEN-BY: 342/200 423/81 633/280 3634/12 4500/1 PATH: 221/360 1 6 154/10 229/426 |
