Hello, folks

The second day working on Newton with a just charged almost dead battery. It
shows 98% charged. I worked about 1 hour on it. Then, felt sleeping.
Today I will keep testing it.
Thanks for help. I will see how to drain the batteries and charge again.

Check the Archives - there are two general tricks for reviving
batteries: involving freezing and physical shock...
