These were supposedly working parts. I have several batteries and newer drives, and each them are still working....just keeping them for myself though.

All prices are SHIPPED via regular US mail...48 continental states only.

There may be more parts added as I finish going through them. I can provide pics for anything that is requested. I'm just too lazy to do it for such inexpensive items.

You remember the "stack" of compaqs that I was picking up this summer? I have them, but most are pretty useless (P120s and such), but there was 4 15xx amoung them. Some work, but they don't have the power cords. So I'm looking for them; does the box have any in it?

Unfortunately, no....there were no power cords at all.

Need a floppy for it?

Does the 15xx feature internal power supply like many other Compaqs did? If so, can't you go to an appliance store or RadioShack (if you're desperate enough for their inflated prices) and pick up a generic 3 prong power cord?

No, I believe that the 1500's have a power adapter AND cord. On a quick google search, I found this.

Yup Alex,

You are correct; they have an internal P/S that takes the funny cloverleaf cord. You know.. the one that the 600 series bricks used. Anyway, I borrowed the one off of one of my docks to do work on it, but haven't gotten around to seriously searching for them. You can find them on ebay, but they usually charge ridiculous shipping for those things! You say appliance stores have them?

I was making a wild guess there since the cord seems to be a pretty standard style. If any of the electronics stores in your area have websites, I'd check them to see if you could find the cord. It also couldn't hurt to make a phone call or two.

RatShack carries the Compaq cloverleaf cords.
