WTB: R32 or R40 battery

#1 Post by tfflivemb2 » Sat Apr 22, 2006 8:58 pm

Anyone have a spare R32 or R40 battery that they can part with?

I just need something that I can use temporarily to update my BIOS and to hold me until I can fix the CMOS problem (CMOS connector socket came off the system board).

I have to reset the date and time every time I unplug the R40, which isn't that big of a deal. HOWEVER, now that I have added a Non-IBM wireless Mini-PCI card, I am nervous about unplugging the adapter, for fear of having to run the no-1802.com file each time. I plan on hibernating with the battery attached when I need to move the R40.

Since this is NOT my portable laptop (true desktop replacement), I don't need much time at all. I don't care if the battery only had 15 minutes of usage. Obviously the more usage that I am able to get, the better, and the more I am willing to spend.

**fingers crossed**

Bought an ultrabay battery for less than $20, hopefully it holds some charge at least.

I guess I was lucky...it only had 1 cycle on it.

OK, anyone have a DEAD R32 or R40 battery that I can use to fill the hole?

In the alternative, I am still open for a used R32 or R40 battery.
