Hi, The Compaq DeskPro 286/12 that I have here, the 12.5MHz version I have
uses a 7.2-volt CMOS backup battery. Compaq advised that one probably
should not vary the voltage more than about .5 volt to either side of the
7.2. This would mean that a 6-volt set-up, as in a battery holder that
could take four pen light or AA batteries would not provide enough voltage
to propperly maintain the CMOS settings. I heard of the existance of one of
those battery holders that could take five AA batteries, which would be just
about right, but I've never been able to locate one. I'm still looking for
one, by the way.
