So - batteries arrived on Wednesday...
I cracked open the Mac II with the battery holders and replaced the two batteries, even though the one was showing 3.6v. Hit the power, and nothing
I jumped the last pin on the logic board connector with another 3.6v battery, and the machine booted right up but with no sound (other than the 80M Quantum drive screeching like a banshee)
I guess it's time to pull the LB and give it a wash, and think about re-capping.
Didn't have time to try the second Mac II with the soldered in batteries. That will come this weekend.
PS - what's the 'native' resolution out of the Toby video card. I couldn't get the video to sync with my flat-panel even using a number of different resolutions on my DB-15-VGA adapter. I had to dig out my Apple High-Resolution Mono monitor to be able to get video.
