A600 memory board battery

MrA600HD · 24 October 2006, 18:32

Hello,

I need to get a replacement battery for my AMRAM6001 issue 2.

How do people go about removing the old ones ? Where do you get replacements and what voltage should it be ?

They look like central heating back up batteries.....one and the same ?

EDIT - AHA !

One of these.. Battery Backed Up Clock

The clips are soldered to the battery right, ok no problem then, where can i get a new one ?

I wouldnt get a new one if I were you.. it will work fine without one. Who needs a clock anyhow? If you replace it get a NiMh battery (that wont leak) rather than a NiCd one.

If you have to get one then http://www.maplin.co.uk and find a branch near you.

Ah yes, good old maplin, blessed with the stupidest staff in the world....couldn't even find me a 10K resistor once....... which is probably why i didn't even think of them !!

It looks like one of those barrel-shaped batteries they used in the 500+/2000/ etc.
Amigakit.com also have those batteries. (NiMh)
