What you need

Step 1

              Aquire Battery               

1024

Step 2

              Remove Original Battery               
  • Slide the battery panel ( or switch, depending on the battery) on the left side of the computer so the battery is in the “Unlocked” position. Pull the battery straight out. Put in the new battery and slide the panel/switch to the “Locked” position.

Slide the battery panel ( or switch, depending on the battery) on the left side of the computer so the battery is in the “Unlocked” position. Pull the battery straight out. Put in the new battery and slide the panel/switch to the “Locked” position.

It is not required, but I always find it useful to save the old battery, lest you need it later. Unless the battery is leaking, or poses some other health/safety issue(in which case dispose of it in the proper manner), store it in a battery-safe environment.

I can’t find a replacement battery anywhere, they’re either out of stock or in another powerbook on ebay and those cost $80 with the chance that the battery in them is dead too.
