As mentioned by others, the 1xx/2xx series power adapters work great--they produce more current, which is fine. Also, although this isn't supposed to be the case, years ago, when mine was in active service and battery life got short, I deep-cycled one of them several times (like with a NiCad), and it returned to normal. There was software back then in one of the utility packs I had that could override the shutdown voltages in the OS, allowing a deeper discharge. (Symantec?) -- Dr. Richard E. Hawkins, Esq.
