I've just went to visit the Lind Electronics website. They list 2
adapter types: one for "Apple PowerBook G3, IBook, 3400, 2400, 1400, &
Duo models", the other one is for "PowerBook 5300 & 190". So, it looks
like if it works with a Duo, it should work with a G3.
In their Auto Adapter opening page, they specifically say:
"Lind Automobile / Airline Adapters operate your laptop and at the same
time charge the laptop's internal battery."
So, it looks like the one I have should work. I will check the model
number, though, just to make sure.
