I fried a $200 battery by leaving my PCG-F190 plugged in to the wall all day and night, with the battery in it. I was told to NEVER leave a 100% charged battery in the machine, took that advice, and have gotten a good 2 years out of the replacement battery so far. - -ken - -------- On Wed, Jun 04, 2003 at 03:47:54PM +0100, Andy Phillips wrote: > Matthew Miller wrote: > > >On Wed, Jun 04, 2003 at 02:30:23PM +0100, Andy Phillips wrote: > > > > > >>The battery is only a year old the laptop is 18months ( anew battery was > >>required when the first wouldn't charge. > >> > >> > > > >Sounds like you maybe have a problem with the charging circuitry in the > >laptop. > > > > > > > This is something that I am trying to establish but I dont want to send > the laptop to sony for them to look at just yet! any ideas on the > possibility of a recon program would be greatfully received. > > > _______________________________________________ > Linux-sony mailing list: [email protected] > Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://returntonature.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-sony > Linux-Sony Documentation: http://returntonature.com/linux/phpwiki - -- - --------------- The world's most affordable web hosting. http://www.nearlyfreespeech.net -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+3tFpe8HF+6xeOIcRAhLTAJ437PXrxzs77GP+AWAgLjA9PVSNIACbBVbW rKzVDzuA/rSJp/lcZt1ushI= =bLq7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
