Description: This photo shows how it looks now in my A2000 after the original and leaking NiCD battery has been replaced with a lithium battery to avoid more serious motherboard damage.

| September 05, 2016, 10:37:05 PM that is bullshit ! I use always 1N4148 in Amiga systems and never had problem with rtc |
| rkauer Posts:3263 | May 10, 2007, 02:57:20 AM No way! Never use a silicon diode! They drop the battery voltage 0.7V, sufficient to prevent the RTCs to work. Use germanium instead, i.e., 1n60 or others (again: never a silicon one, nor a zener, obviously). They drop batt. voltage only 0.3V. |

| November 03, 2003, 06:23:31 PM @Herewegoagain: Read the guide LithBatt before you start replacing the battery. It mentions the things you should think about when doing this modification and how to do this modification properly. I read it before modifying my A2000 pictured above and I strongly recommend it. Good luck replacing your battery! /Patrik |

It's great for dusting off your motherboard and components.Seriously, I'd like to try this project on my A3000. I don't see any signs of the battery dying, but why wait until you have a problem? |
