Battery or Board - 2008/01/30 02:23I have a Pismo which runs just fine on the charger. The battery indicator gives four lights, but it will not boot on just the battery. It starts, but then cuts off. If I unplug it while running, it might run for maybe 20 minutes or it might shut off almost immediately. I hate to buy a new battery only to find that the battery-control board is no good. Is there any way to load test the battery outside the computer?
