But if you own both a Pismo and, say, a compact Mac like a Classic, you're familiar with the different form factor that each respective battery takes. The PRAM battery for a Pismo not only has a completely different size and shape than the one for a Classic, but also has its own distinctive connector. That difference in form factor is what caused me to suggest he post to the G-Books list instead. Here, for instance: http://tinyurl.com/5tu236 ...is a step-by-step guide to making a Pismo PRAM battery. Unfortunately, the battery constructed in that guide won't work for your LC, which uses this particular PRAM battery: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/BAA36VPRAM/ ...available at around five bucks a throw (~$7.50 shipped to your door). Does my suggestion make more sense now? Best, James Fraser --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Vintage Macs group.
