Classic Battery—Positive Experience

[kmasterk]

I recently get a refurbished battery for my venerable 755C from Paul, aka goldeneagle (memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=60882). Finding a "new" battery for this vintage is nearly impossible, but Paul's battery works even better than I had hoped. I use mostly WordStar 7 in DOS 6.22, with some tinkering in WFW 3.11, and am averaging about 5-6 hours per charge.

Not only does it work well, but it was a fair price, shipped quickly, and came with top-notch support.

If you are looking for a hard-to-find battery, or a refurbishment of a dead one, I highly recommend Paul's services!

There's actually a "trade secret" I'd like to learn about refurbishing the batteries.. How does one connect to consecutive batteries in a chain? It's obvious that you weld/solder wires to the first/last battery in the chain, but what do you do between the batteries?.. Do you use any solder there (if you're soldering not welding)?..

I wonder if Paul can provide or fix my 600 and T22/T30 batts...
