Dear listers,
This is the second time I've had to email NewerTech support about
replacing a battery, in the past month, but I'm starting to wonder
if it's not my Lombard that's causing my battery problems, instead
of the batteries themselves. I know the charging board is good on
it, AFAIK,
I dont know why, but I have had _zero_ luck bringing any third
party WS or lombard batteries back to life. BTI or Newertech.
Well, I called NewerTech and they think it's a bad PMU, but I still
want a second opinion. They did say that they could get approval for
another replacement, if I
receive a confirmation email
and you just have to reply to it.
