simple as you may see when you open an Ipaq. One solution would be to get the same connectors used on the battery and the pcb and build an adapter. Else, I don't see how to insert an amperemeter without damaging the flex. The best solution would be to get from people at Compaq which 0 ohms resitors is before or after the power circuit to replace it with the amperemeter ;-)) Eric _______________________________________________ http://lists.arm.linux.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm Please visit the above address for information on this list.
