Yes, it can work, I've 'repaired' several batteries using BR 2. The best luck I had was with some NOS Pismo batts that had been sitting unused for several years and gone flat. BR2 …

That thing is begging for some CCFL/LED action.

Oh whoops, my bad. Nice conquests nevertheless! How much would you want for an IIsi though, along with the '13 Hi-Res display and the PM 5500/225 motherboard I mentioned earlier?

Sorry I meant to put this in Conquests. Rare Daystar cards, etc. go into my collection, unless I have duplicates, sorry. I could sell some IIsi's though.

How much would you want for the IIsi w/Daystar card? What card is it?

Yeah...while its a great find...unless you actually bought the machine yourself, its not really a Conquest, and therefore doesn't really belong in this forum. (of course, if I …

This is not a conquest!

I'm not a big fan of the CC, but that's just awesome! 8-o

You need a solvent-type plastic welder, for example Ambroid's ProWeld. It's a very thin solvent that can be wicked into a crack. I've repaired tons of cracked and broken PB ABS par…

Wow! Shame the keyboard and mouse are not also clear... But it's beautiful! :b&w:

Sold on eBay for just under $5000. Yes, that is a Color Classic prototype with clear acrylic case. It is quite possibly the coolest Mac EVER. In all existence. Period. Had I k…

If you post a schematic for VGA -> Color Classic CRT, I will float you a donation AND buy a Color Classic tomorrow to do this mod.

IIRC, didn't i send you a link for that? Click to expand... Yep indeedy :approve:

The eMac 9.2.2 disc is a good one. The version I have has Mac OS ROM 10.1.1, which is one of the highest versions. I don't think any bootable, 9.2.2 install discs have the higher 1…

In my experience, passive matrix screens can have leaked caps, causing screen issues such as a faint display/occasional "yellow-out" issues. I had it happen to a PowerBook 140 and …

I had the tunnel vision/darkening corners fault on a Duo 280 greyscale. i think that's a fault in the LCD itself rather than the backlight, but I am open to better information.

The only issue I have run into is on an old Powerbook 170. It suffered from black corners of the LCD when on for a long period of time. All my other powerbooks work fine. Mind y…

I sorta remember a fuse on the ADB port 5V line. Don't have a II cx to look at, but have a squint at the mobo for a little surface mount chip labelled F-something. There is also a …

Having several modern CCFL backlit LCDs that have gone dim, I'm wondering how well the 68k portables' LCDs hold up to age. What are some of the common problems, and what should on…

I enjoyed the description on that last Powerbook: Please assume that our are free of mold Click to expand... I always worry about getting a moldy computer... :lol:

Page 2 of this PDF on Mouser lists the 3.9uF cap I mention, with one rated at 250V. I simply cannot pull it up on the Mouser site by part number. But since it is in a catalog lis…

Ah, thanks for that, I was looking a Mouser, and the closest I could find there was a 4 uF.
