    T480S NM-B471 No start - only after removing all batteries

    Maybe somebody has an idea.
    Got this T480s in this conditions.

    It will power up, if internal battery and CMOS battery are disconnected.
    Plugin in a power supply will make the unit start.
    There is no reaction to the power button at all. The button board has been replaced. Same behaviour.

    Assumed a bad EC flash and reflashed a clean update from a BIOS update via Vertyanov. Bios flash is also fine.

    The PWRSWITCH line has 3.3V level which gets pulled down when the button is pressed.

    Finally solved this issue.
    PWRSW is going to EC and from there it is output on another pin as PWRSW_EC. This was not coming out of the EC. Replacing EC is difficult because of glue. Used a jumper wire between PWRSW and PWRSW_EC. Power button works as expected now.

      Cyberpower cps1500avr not charging batteries
      by carrzkiss
      Hello, all.

      Cyberpower Battery Backup Unit.

      I bought two new ML18-12 batteries through Amazon (They have already refunded my money for the two batteries as we thought the batteries might have been bad.)
      When I got them in, they were not fully charged. I connected them to the UPS and waited 24 hours before connecting any networking equipment.
      In parallel, they read 24v, but within 24 hours, the meter on the front of the unit dropped from 4 to 3 bars on the battery charge indicator.
      Checking the voltage, it was down to 22v.
      I quickly removed everything...
