Anyone know of a good place to get replacement cells and how to re-cell a Duo Type I and Duo Type III battery?Now this won't hurt a bit. Until I jam this thing down your throat!

Replacement cells are not a good idea do Powerbook batteries. First of all, even if you can get replacement cells, and fully reassemble the housing with new cells, it is not 100% guarrentieed to work. If you do do this, there is also a higher risk of shorting out the battery, and a good possibility of the Duo also.This is something that no one should try. But if they have nothing to lose, it's your Duo's funeral. ------------------

I did that to my 1400 battery. The machine now doesn't see that there is a battery in there for some reason.
