Sorry for taking so long to upload Part 2, I had a lot of stuff to do lately. Part 2 was filmed shortly after Part 1, it just needed to be edited and uploaded. Yes, I'm venturing into the world of video editing!. Anyways, enjoy and stay tuned for Part 3!

  • You completely skipped how to solder the cells together and you installed batteries that are bigger than the originals, this could easily lead the battery overheating. You should only use the same exact cells when rebuilding a battery, especially a lithium chemistry battery.

  • @christo930 17670 vs 18650, not much of a difference there. In fact the batteries have outlived that laptop.

  • Man, you are fixing laptop batteries in dinosaurs. those are gone, nobody use that junk anymore, BESIDES, the chinese make those batteries for 25 or 30 bucks and is way cheaper than you expend in those.

  • @paunocudatuamae Tell that to people in industrial settings who need a laptop with a serial port to configure some multi-million dollar piece of machinery.

    $25 batteries? You get what you pay for.

  • @133MHzz USB to RS232, no?

  • @stellari81 Those work with some devices but not with others since they don't generate true RS232 spec signals. When doing Serious Business stuff, nothing beats a real COM or LPT port.

  • @133MHzz You definitely get what you pay for :( I bought a $20 dell latitude D610 battery and not just that it doesnt hold the charge like it should.. but the overall build quality is bad and the LED indicator is not even functional.. just imitating what the original battery had. :/

    Thank you for posting this.. I'll try to attempt installing some new cells into my old battery ;)

  • I use an older laptop to program eproms via an ECP Parallel Port (LPT), This video really helped me out with the idea fix its battery. Easy and works great.

    Cheers

  • @paunocudatuamae I'd love to have an old laptop like this so I could have a dedicated DOS laptop for older games.

  • @133MHzz it depends on battery. But to remake, i would prefer that one .

  • OK Juga
