Thanks Ken, glad to see SmartDisk hasn't utterly abandoned their former products! Now if only VST/SmartDisk could have seen fit to provide the chargers' error-light codes. When a battery has a fault, their chargers output different flash sequences depending on the specific battery fault, but AFAIK VST never published what the result codes mean. Grrr. This ain't the first time I've asked this: I don't suppose anyone knows the meanings of the various result codes? dan k PS: and another Thanks Ken! for your terrific Macs 'n' wifi page! . http://macdan.n3.net/ carracho://dankephoto.dhs.org:9700 hotline://dankephoto.dhs.org:9500 . -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: VST Chargers for 190/5300/3400?
Ok I finally bought one of those battery chargers off eBay that you see for sale every day but the little hole where the ac adapter goes doesn't fit my 3400 ac adapter. I thought it was supposed to use our PB charger to work. Anyone know where I can get the correct part? Its been a long time since I had a 5300 but I don't remember its ac adapter looking like that either. I thought they had both connections side by side. 5300 is a long thin plug, the 3400 the later phono style. -- Best wishes Malcolm Cornelius - The Powerbook Fanatic http://www.pbfanatic.co.uk -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: VST Chargers for 190/5300/3400?
I got one of these for a friend who has as 3400 too. He had to get a 5300 power supply in order to power the charger. (My PB 5300's charger works fine with the charger I got. :) ) It's a hassle, but I've seen the PS going for under $10 on ebay lately. My 3400 one has both I just checked. -- Best wishes Malcolm Cornelius - The Powerbook Fanatic http://www.pbfanatic.co.uk -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

You must have a 5300 VST charger. If you want the 3400s Adapter to work with it , you need to buy the VST 3400 Charger which are rare on eBay. Do these charge Li-Ion's?

Re: VST Chargers for 190/5300/3400?
I think they do charge the LiOns, but to be honest, I can't remember--I'm at work and don't have the charger info handy. The box doesn't specify only nickle-metal hydride (pulled up and looked at the box on one of the ebay auctions). I don't own a LiOn battery so I'm not sure. All the other ads on the web that I could find with google never specify one battery type or another, either. Later.Howard Computer n.

You must have a 5300 VST charger. If you want the 3400s Adapter to work with it , you need to buy the VST 3400 Charger which are rare on eBay. Do these charge Li-Ion's? VST has changed that product a bunch. There are 190/5300 changers which have 190/5300-only power brick connections. There are 3400 changers which have 3400/3500/WS-only power brick connections. (There are apparently chargers which have dual connections for 190/5300 *and* 3400/3400/WS power bricks, but I haven't seen those). There are 3500 chargers (which also accept 190/5300/3400 batteries) and have 3400/3400/WS-only power brick connections. These are the scarce ones. There is different firmware in each, and even the WS charger, which accept the ubiquitous 45 W power brick from the earlier machines, has at least three firmware revs: 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
