[rescue] Sun SPARCstation Voyager battery

[Eric Ozrelic]

PLEASE! Talk to the people at www.batterybiz.com before you start cutting.
Often times if you give them a battery pack that they've never seen before,
they'll figure out how to make a replacement, and give you a discount
towards a new one. That way there will be at least a relatively inexpensive
source for Voyager batteries in the future for the rest of us.

Regards,

Eric Ozrelic

  You'll need to either have it rebuilt or rebuild it yourself.

  You'll need to open it up and see if any partnumber/info is
marked on the batteries. You should be able to find replacements
that are the same rating and size (or smaller).

  I'm in the same boat. I've got a battery pack and it's
just as dead.
