I have a T45 in for minor service, otherwise it is working. With a newly
rebuilt battery pack , it takes less than 3 seconds after a full dump.

| My T45 with AC3 took 14 seconds after a full discarge, but I guess that's
| normal then. With my rebuilt battery pack it now took over 15 seconds, but
| a quick check with the volt-meter revealed that the voltage in the one
| cluster being drained was now down to 4.1V, so fast recharging was not to
| be expected.
| So, the problem persists, and I'm still hoping for some good advice before
| this thing gets major surgery. The only good thing is that I have at least
| one working step-up circuit in there, so reverse engineering the other
ones
| should be possible if I can find the parts. Of course, a schematic would
| make it easier... anyone?
