hi,
my duo 270c has broken, so now I'm using a new powerbook 280c upgrated to 2300c
it is a nice machine, but I got a little problem. I'm using a reconditionated (by my father) battery of the old duo 270c, and the "living time" with the 280c/2300c is more short: the same battery give me 1h30m using the 270c, and only 40/50minutes using the 280c.
I try to use the battery recondition utility, but it do not work: the application start, the screen became white with the battery icon jumping here and there, and after 10 hours nothing is changed, white screen, battery jumping, and I have to quit application.
I try to reset power manager, but nothing changed.
Is this a normal problem using a 270c battery on a duo 2300c?
Thank you for the answer.
If Battery Recondition isnt working then it sounds like the battery is going bad. Keep tryting the recondition until it works.
