Description: Found this on a Rev 6 A2000HD motherboard I was given as a spare when I recently bought an A2000. The original battery had been replaced with a phone battery which had then leaked again :-o :-(

Ral-Clan Posts:1974 | November 14, 2006, 05:04:43 PM Rechargeable phone batteries are not bad. They should last years, but you've GOT to open up your Amiga every couple of years and check the state of things. I have a phone battery in my A2000....but I ran a wire a few inches so I can move it to another part of the Amiga not directly in contact with the motherboard! |
Darklight Posts:263 | April 04, 2005, 11:40:18 AM Yeah, the previous owner didn't check it after replacing it with a 4.5v phone battery. AND, it was left with the acid sitting on it for a good while before I got it and cleaned it up. If I can get it working, I'll use the lithium hack on it :-( |
odin Posts:6796 | April 04, 2005, 02:58:09 AM Nah, replacing with same type is not bad. Not checking on the state of your battery once in a while IS bad however :-). |
orange Posts:2794 | April 03, 2005, 06:25:46 PM wow, thats some bad leakage.. :-( its gonna be very hard cleaning all that mess so replacing batt. with the same type is bad, he should have tried litt hack |
