 Posted: Fri Apr 12, 2019 4:29 pm Post subject: Go 600 battery alternative |
 |
|
Hi all, the battery has died on my Go 600 and will not hold any charge. I know that I can get a replacement off Fleabay. I have a brand new One battery and wondering whether it will be suitable.
600 unit is 3.7v 1100mAh. One is 3.7v 1300mAh
600 is 4.07Wh. One is 4.8 Wh.
Both have a 3 wire connector block. Not sure if the differences would kill my 600.
Any advice appreciated 
John |

I would say the battery itself is ok but the connector looks different to me

Just an update. Ordered a new battery and fitted it. However, while doing so I noticed a scorch mark on the screen backplate and a corresponding mark on the circuit board.
New battery must have been charged as the unit turned on OK, but would not recharge.
Presume time for the bin?  |
