So I have been doing some reading about the Macintosh Portable and it's power supply and batteries... from what I have read it seems that you can actually turn on the portable from the 9V backup battery and run it for a moment (sans hard drive since the 9v can't sink that much current), is it therefore safe to assume that the portable can run from 9V?
Reason I ask is I am looking to substitute the internal lead acid battery and replace it with a 7.4V LiPO battery, which when fully charged will hover around 8.2~8.4V MAX but obviously don't want to fry any of the regulators so I figured I would ask and see if anyone knew any details about this?
