At least, only half functioned when they arrived. This particular machine is a bit of an annoying one to work on and one that has defeated some loftier heads than mine. Well, perhaps not quite defeated, but definitely not the most successful. (I still kind of wonder what happened to that machine …) https://chrissalch.com/posts/tandy-1110hd-battery-replacement/ Sun, 04 Aug 2024 12:17:31 -0500 https://chrissalch.com/posts/tandy-1110hd-battery-replacement/ Old Batteries It’s been a while since the last time I worked on my Tandy 1110hd partly because of normal life and partly because I’ve been playing around with another project. I was able to get my hands on a pair of Compaq Portables in reasonably decent shape. Thankfully, both units powered on (classic buy two in questionable condition to make one working unit) and neither has suffered the exploding tantalum plague so I got lucky again.
