      Thanks Retiredcaps. That is really good, almost half the batteries and it still functions, good video.

        If you think that is good, check the UEI multimeter in episode 99 (Dave Jones' eevblog $100 multimeter shootout) below

        http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-_dU...feature=relmfu

        Start 31:15 into program for the UEI (9V battery). The Fluke 87V shows the DC variable power output voltage. The Gossen Metrahit shows the current usage of the DUT multimeter.

        I wish ALL electronics would use up every last drop of the batteries rather than cutting off at 1.2V (for 1.5V batteryl).

          I have been a very long time nimh battery user.
          Thank you retiredcaps,
          it is true that I am an dedicated explorer of multimeters.
          Your hot welcoming will force me to buy one small Canadian flag for my office.

          About the multimeters and NiMH, slowly the manufacturers they start to understand how important are the rechargeable s.
          The new Agilent U1273A haves one special setting about adjusting the battery indicator for use with alkaline, or for use with NiMH.
          Everything is a mater of design.

          In few weeks from now, my review about it will make widely known those fresh technical details.

          The one set of those latest eneloop AA is for my FLUKE 28II.
          And those AAA for the Agilent U1272A & U1273A .

            Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
            by Bowline
            My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

            Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

            My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
            The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
            I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

            ASUS X571 no power : battery issue?
            by mkdj
            Hello everyone,

            Mark and model: ASUS X571
            Symptoms: not turning on. There is only the LED battery indicator working. The owner of the laptop told me this problem arrived one week after having changed the battery. He then managed to power on the laptop only once, and then it never powered on again.

            Tests already made:
            - Battery is charging when laptop is plugged in. The LED battery indicator turns white after a couple of hours of charge, indicating that battery is fully charged. However, laptop won't turn on anyway, with or without AC plug.
            - I have removed...

            Vostro 3400 (LA-K033P) won't charge battery, everything else ok
            by techfreak9356
            I bought a Vostro 3400 motherboard (LA-K033P) to upgrade over my damaged Inspiron 5593 (LA-J091P) board. Everything else is ok except for the battery. This battery I am using now is already a replacement one since I disposed of the bloated original one. Back in the Inspiron 5593 motherboard, the battery charges fine and is identified just fine. However, with the upgraded motherboard, suddenly the replacement battery is labeled as "Not a dell battery". When I borrow a similar battery from my colleague (which did not have replacements yet), it is identified and charges just fine.

            ISL88739AHRZ ISL88739 Laptop Battery Charger Datasheet
            by Document Archive
            The ISL88739 & ISL88739AHRZ are a highly versatile combo battery charger
            configurable for operating as either a Hybrid Power Boost (HPB)
            charger or a Narrow VDC (NVDC) charger, supporting 2-, 3-, or
            4-cell batteries. Both configurations allow the battery to work with
            the adapter together to supply the system load when it exceeds
            the adapter capability, referred to as system Turbo mode. HPB
            charger configuration reverse-boosts battery energy to the system
            bus to help the adapter provide the system power in Turbo mode.
            NVDC charger configuration...

            Strange battery present behaviour in Lenovo Legion 5-15ARH05 mb model nm-d041
            by ferah831208
            Hello guys, i need help with this problem, I have a NM-D041 mobo, it came with low impedance in 3v linear regulator rail, the cause was a damaged EC controller ITE8227e-192. I ordered a new one and replaced it. This laptop have a different chip for keyboard management and it8227e pins for programming ITE chips are not accesible through keyboard interface, I flashed it using i2c interface pins with vertyanov programmer because laptop was dead and SPI flash didn't have power (only 3v EC) so it couldn't access firmware stored in SPI memory. I read SPI and extracted it8227 firmware from original BIOS...
