I have an otherwise nice and faultlessly working T30 here with a charging problem that I have never encountered before:
Although the power meter indicates that the battery is charging and that it is running on mains power, the battery is being discharged (drained?) as if it would run on battery. Everything else looks normal: - charging light comes on when mains charger cable is connected - power meter indicates charging state properly - starts up both with and without battery The batteries and chargers I tried are okay, they work normal on other T30 models. The same problem occurs with both main battery and any additional ultrabay batteries. I tried it in a docking station as well, where the power supply goes through the docking station connector at the bottom, so that the rear power connector is bypassed. Alas, no difference. Still pretending to charge but not doing so. Hardware problem (main board, i.e. non repairable)? Or any other thing I forgot to try?
