My minilaptop‘s BIOS battery died a couple weeks ago, the clock in the BIOS keeps going back to the defaul date and all that.I have a BIOS battery from a regular desktop computer, can I take that battery and use the connector from the dead minilaptop one and plug it in?I‘m assuming they are the same voltage, just different sizes. Is that correct?I took a picture of both batteries so you can see the difference.
Do NOT risk an unknown battery. They are NOT al the same voltage and a higher voltage could damage the machine. You MUST use the same number battery.
Ask him/her what parts he bought to make the suspension firm and replace them with stock parts from a GM dealer or online somewhere.
Disposable coin sized lithium cells are all 3V, so that's not a problem. The challenging part is connecting the wires. It would be much easier if it had solder tags. Ordinary solder probably won't bond to it properly (if at all) and heating it may also pose an explosion risk. Some solders may be suitable for stainless steel and other difficult to solder metals, those usually contain special fluxes, but they usually require significantly higher temperature than standard solder. A better option is to use some type of holder. The main problem with that is that it makes the whole assembly too bulky to fit within a very restricted space, but yeah, if there's enough space then by all means that's a satisfactory solution. I once made up my own 'battery holder' from just a couple of springy strips of thin copper sheet, which I epoxy-glued at the ends (just a small drop). It had to be shaped and spaced so that when finished and allowed to cure, the cell would be just slid in and sit there with enough spring tension, but not so much that it would be forced to break apart. I soldered the wires before the glue job to avoid weakening of the glue due to the heat. The glue works as insulator as well as to hold it together. I then finished by covering with some plastic from a plastic back and a small piece of sticky tape. Due to the very small amount of space I had to use a 2016 cell which lasts about 3 years in my case. I thought that's okay because replacing it isn't too difficult.
he probably cut off some suspension by himself to give it a sportier feeling to it. o sorry didnt answer ur question. u can buy new suspension prolly
Great picture no blurrs and can see the model no on the cmos battery best to order the replacement cmos battery for the laptop , one reason is the soldering might not hold trying to attach the connector to the regular desktop cmos battery, and the space the battery was in, i really doubt the voltage are the same though they are both cr2032
