The batteries I have are the new Lithium Ion rechargeable batteries for the Kanga G3 PowerBook. They came brand new still in plastic from Wegener Media. They charge up inside the PowerBook, but I see that there are a few VST "3400" Lithium Ion battery chargers on eBay. Here's a question: your 3400c is configured just like mine. When you hit the StartUp button how long in seconds does it take before the screen lights up after the StartUp bong chimes ??? Mine takes from 15 to 19 seconds. Is this normal ??
