Hi all

altough the battery is a problem (sometimes) we all need to understand, that our beloved Amigas, are near the end . . . and NOT for the batteries.

The real problem nowaday, is the age of the capacitors (electrolitic) for the mobos and for the accellerator cards (CSPPC too).

The only solution is to start to think to a full replacement for ALL the capacitors.

. . . estimated life ~ 5 years (more the time they were stocked-produced).

Bye :-(

obviously, i was speaking about mobos and accelerator cards . . . .PSUs, better replace it.

Anyway DON'T replace anything, if you haven't the right tools and . . . the right experience too ;-)

Bye
