I bought another PowerBook 540c.

It’s well worth the effort, I’m getting 3-4 hours’ usage out of my rebuilt one. Running untethered increases the enjoyment of these old laptops significantly.

I’ve had this on a couple of different 1400s, so it seems to be a common issue.

The cells were purchased loose and untabbed, and I assembled it using a spot welder.

I've just completed a battery rebuild for my iBook 300 - it's taken a full charge and seems to work great.

UI6 is part of the RAM system, while UG6/7 and UE6/7 are part of the video system…

I used to have a Performa 6200 and 6320 and they did both have a PCI opening, you’re thinking of the Performa/LC 630. What you’d struggle to obtain is the single slot PCI right angle adapter.

I always thought the 6360 was a 160MHz computer. Wish they’d sold them in the UK - they’re pretty cool and all, being the only PCI-based Macintosh in that cute LC630 form factor.

You’re right. Also I think the left hand PowerBook is raised up. Still, the picture does play tricks!

I think the problem will come back soon :LOL:

Looking at the 40MB it has built-in, it would have a PowerPC upgrade as well. Also, this image is just trippy. What is that, a full size 540c and a smaller one? :ROFLMAO:

Yes, the fix is not needed for the Rev04 board released Dec 2023.

@Phipli, in case you still have some of these left: I am shortly going to order some of @GRudolf94 's boards from JLCPCB for my 840AV. Since the minimum order quantity is 5 and I only need one, would you like to trade a couple of your 'IIci etc' boards for a couple of my '840AV/8100/etc' boards?
