true, external temperatures affect li-poly but do not affect nicad/nimh chemistries unless they are in the +120/-20 range. gotta wonder why the industry uses an old technology like lithium when the nickel metal is so much more superiour in every way. anyway, what I was mentioning was the heat from the cpu bleeding into the battery pack. that really shouldn't happen since li are supposed to be kept at room temperatures while being charged to get the best capacity. I was just wondering whether anyone else was experencing this--my libretto may be defective and I need it repaired kind of thing. > Date: Thu, 15 Dec 2005 13:07:50 -0800 (PST) > From: David Chien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [LIB] u100 battery life engineering problem > > That's perfectly normal.
