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

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

So I finished recapping the logic board of the 270c, the only issue I have now is those two unknown capacitors on the 2300c logic board, is there any way to figure out what they are?

this is the connector

Would these work?  https://www.amazon.com/XML-Battery-1600mAh-Self-Discharge-Rechargeable/dp/B083H35ZQY/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=1600mah+battery&qid=1611689212&sr=8-3

This is kind of off topic but I have a few questions about the duo's. The 270c has a ribbon cable connector on the bottom of the logic board, I have seen this on both a 210 and my 270c, what is this connector? is it for testing purposes. Another thing I witnessed recently after putting my...

That is incredible!, what a find!

I understand that, school is often keeping me from many of my electronics and car projects,  glad to hear you might be able to get it working, I am still trying to round up cells for my Duos

Thanks for the link,  I think that's a bit expensive for me right now, Maybe I'll look for a floppy adapter and disk drive instead 

Beautiful job on that P-RAM battery. the Duos are such great machines to work because of how simple they are, they also seem to be very reliable, as I've owned three of them and now have two docks (still looking for a minidock) all of which have had no major issues or failures, except my dock...

Did you ever make anymore progress on this?, as I now own two Duos I might give this a shot if it's proven to work 

This would be amazing, I would love to replace the HD in my 270c

Out of curiosity, what kind of capacitors did you use?, did you replace the electrolytics like for like? 

Thank you very much, I love these little machines 

So after many years of radio silence on this forum I decided to come back, I lost about 95 percent of my collection in 2017 to a collapsed shelf, and of all the images I lost the one that saddened me the most was my powerbook duo.  So with many fond memories of the duo I decided I would set out...

Thank you, I’ll order them right away

Hi everyone, I am going to start recapping my Duos as I finished Recapping the docks, Does anyone know which capacitors are required for the 2300c and 270c, Also is it worth recapping the displays?, I worry that the heat of a soldering iron could ruin the two near perfect duo screens I have. ...

I am still unsure which method I am going to use with my Duo, I still have to make a conquest post on my duo gear as I just got a 48mb module for my 2300c, If I end up replacing the NiMH cells like for like I will post the results.
