Hi Folks- I recently purchased a 3 pack of *new* (meaning 4 years ago new, but not used) Apple batteries for my PowerBook 190 from Mega Macs. I can't tell if the batteries are defective, or the computer is somehow to blame, but they all seem to charge fine, and the meter reads that I have 3+ hours on them, but within 5 minutes of use, the computer goes into shutdown mode due to "No reserve power left" on the battery. I have run Battery Reconditioner on all three batteries. Could it be they are all duds? Or is there some trick to pull here to get the PB to work with them properly?
Any insight into this would be helpful. Thanks, Scott -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
