Notebook PSU/mobile power solution
Posted: Sun Apr 07, 2002 6:06 pm
My borthers' old plasma notebook pc (8 years old) has reached its end of life sort of. So we decided to upgrade all its hardware ourselves raher than spend a lot of money on an expensive "brand name".
So we were able to find almost all the needed replacement components including the mobo with one exception being a mobile/small/ Power Supply that acts as a charger as well. The old Power Supply still works but the old NiMH battary is not good (leaking actually!!). Because we do not know where to get it we decide to replace this part with a new Lithium type power source.
Now this is the last hurdle we are having, where can we get / buy this type of Lithium battery that would be compatible to power this notebook & at the same time work with the PSU/charger we have.
Are there are places selling ready-to-go power kits including PSU & Lithium battary designed to power notebook mobos available for retail ...
any website that specializes in this "home-made" type notebook power supplies?
