Re: Pismo battery loose in battery bay--normal and PRAM battery?
My battery is snug in my Pismo. That's all I can tell you. There probably is a problem. Does it charge? Anyway my battery doesn't hold much of a charge after almost two years, so it probably isn't too much of a loss. Jim Mine is loose from front to back, but it snug vertically. Also, where is cheapest and quickest place to get the PRAM battery for a Pismo? My regular battery, albeit loose, holds a charge well and has done so for 2 years. I do use battery amnesia every couple of months or so. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Pismo battery loose in battery bay--normal?
This is pretty normal, at least in the 30 or 40 Pismo's I've had. I'd only be worried if connection was being lost, or the battery loose enough to fall out.. Still, there's no adjustment available, so it'd either be a normal looseness, or a broken part (I highly doubt that)... Thanks, David In a message dated 6/14/02 12:38:42 AM, you wrote: I just purchased a PB G3 Pismo from someone. I really didn't notice it at the time I was checking out the laptop, but after taking the laptop home, I discovered the battery is slightly loose in the battery bay. Now all it does is slightly move side to side (kinda jiggles). But it is locked in the bay and I don't think it will fall out. Now what I want to know is if this is normal? I've owned a Lombard and a Powerbook 2400c and both of their batteries are not that loose (actually don't move at all). Am I just being picky? Are your Pismo batteries snug in their bays? Is there some reason for me to be concerned? Is the world flat??? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Mike __ -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
