hot swap battery?

#1 Post by ghiavert » Thu Aug 24, 2006 3:34 pm

Perhaps a silly question, but can you hot swap the battery on a T23.

I have an extra battery and want to know if I can swap a dying battery for a fully charged one without losing my work?

As long as you are using an AC adapter, then yes. However, if you are running the Battery MaxiMiser application it might not indicate the correct state of the battery until you re-boot (I believe).

no, actually I meant if I wasn't using the adapter. I was thinking on Plane or somewhere else that switching batteries would be better than going to AC.

You need to hibernate to save your work, then swap the battery and resume from hibernation.
