Unfortunate, I'll have a look through my parts bin and see if I can find another board

Sorry to hijack this thread but does anyone know the specs of the two transformers near the power jack, I need to replace the one closest to the power jack

ill ask them for a price on a duo battery and may i send one to be repacked

I’ve done the main board caps on 3 duos and each have been in various states of electrolyte damage, one had slight corrosion and others had completely eroded pads, glad you replaced these caps.

I may be able to provide you with some more information regarding the hard drive bay and modem situation within the Duo’s, i can send you the blank card that plugs into the modem connector when there is no modem present, i can take general measurements of whatever you need as well

I do, ill have a go with it tonight and see if that helps, thanks!

I picked up a 210 at a thrift store recently and i wad delighted that it worked perfectly, however as i was using it the entire screen froze, after leaving it for a few minutes with no response i restarted the machine using the keyboard, after which i got a happy mac followed by the screen...

I am trying to figure out what these coils are, surely we could measure certain metrics of them and find a match for them 

Is the 270c considered rare?, I swear I have seen more 270s  than any other duo, but I guess all duos are rare anyway 

You would be surprised, the very first Mac I ever posted about was a Classic with severe battery acid/rust that looked very similar to that above, i removed the rist with vinegar and painted the frame, still plenty of good metal under the rust

Thanks!, I’ll try it out tonight!

Definitely! it would be nice to have a video resource for recapping, I usually pick the smallest cap with the correct values when working with PowerBooks, and I make sure to clean and flux the board before applying the new caps, it works every time for me 

I am very excited for this, it seems like an affordable solution to failing SCSI drives 

I have a spare 280 board to recap next so I might try surface mounts all around with that board 

They actually fit amazingly, there's more room with them than the original caps which was surprising.

So I managed to get both Duos recappedafter ordering all the parts from Digikey For anyone who is recapping a 2300c, The smaller capacitors are 33uf 35v  And here is the patient after surgery   :D

I think that is way way too high, however  when I have my 2300 apart again I will try and find the part number of the LCD for you, maybe other laptops used that panel?

Did you end up getting that Ebay screen?

Do you have a dock?, if so try that and see if an external keyboard works, I would like to say that bad caps would cause this but you might want to dig out a multimeter and start testing the fuses on the logic board as well as other components for continuity. First step is probably to get that...

Will a higher voltage cap affect it at all?, if not I’ll order a set right away
