I could have seen this from the size 59,8 x 38 because our battery is only 52.8 x 33.7 :-( Thanks matthias -- Matthias Apitz | /\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign: www.asciiribbon.org E-mail: g...@unixarea.de | \ / - No HTML/RTF in E-mail WWW: http://www.unixarea.de/ | X - No proprietary attachments phone: +49-170-4527211 | / \ - Respect for open standards ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

I hadn't realized LiIon batteries varied much by manufacturer. Is there a similar script for the Freerunner which can perform the same battery capacity test? —B ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Larger capacity battery
Hello, I was thinking about purchasing another battery from Golden Delicious (as a spare/backup) but before I do does anyone know of any higher capacity batteries that are compatible with a Freerunner? The only ones mentioned on the wiki are 1100mAh or less. Someone[1] appears to have got it working with a 6Ah portable DVD player battery by using the battery circuit board from the Openmoko battery. I'm not sure if I want anything as drastic as that, but I would not be averse to doing the same with a battery the same size as the Openmoko one. Thanks, Dominic 1. http://dennisferron.blogspot.co.uk/2009/12/freerunner-battery-mod-case-mod-runs.html ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
