These weren't designed for use with a battery. That's the most difficult part of finding what I need. There are plenty boards out there that have all the right features, but so far I couldn't find anything that can work for a few hours without an AC power source. - Max _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hardware To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
