talking about power adaptors, is there anyone who has tried a 7W adaptor in
conjunction with the battery tray loaded with high capacity NiMH-cells
(6-7Ah) in a mp2k?
i heard that the unit could start to melt from the heat generated from the
charging of the cells, so everyone seems to use a separate charger for high
capacity cells. i thought mybe the 8W adaptor will charge slower and the
newton will then not get so hot, but i dont want to be the first one to
try:)
im interested in upgrade the (by now) quite old battery pack of my newt, but
then i need to have a good alternative, as i dont want to run around with a
separate charger.
ideas, anyone?
