(Hand waving....!) I'll take them!!! Actually, on the Type III batt., the
cells are 4/5ths A cells and these are available from BatteriesAmerica.com.
A rebuild takes an hour or so and $40 of cells. I use a Dremel tool to cut
open the case. Last one I did ran the 2300 for about 2 hours of "normal"
use....a GS 280 would last maybe....3 hrs or so?? BTW, if anyone has a cheap
screen for a 270 or 280, email me off-list, I have a good logic I'd like to
get going....and I don't need color. If you want to do a trade, I do have a
good 2300 active screen. I'd accept a greyscale screen as partial trade for
the color screen.
