190/5300 NIMH batteries will work (with a much shorter run time) in the 3400
instead of the LiOn battery. The LiOn batteries will not work in the 190 or
5300 however.

No other Apple battery is the same as a 1400 battery.

I believe that 190/5300 batteries can be used in a 3400, not sure if it
works in reverse.

190/1400/3400 battery differences.

2002-10-13 Thread Clae 
Recently I was set up to purchase a 1400 battery (dead) from a 
swaplist member.  Since then he has discovered that the batteries he 
has are a 3400 LiOn, a 3400 NiMH, and a 530/190 NiMH.

Two questions:  are any of these physically the same size and shape, 
alignment of contact pins, position of locking clip etc, as a 1400 
battery?  And is there any management circuitry inside the battery 
itself on these or the 1400 I should be aware of?

The plan:  recell
