T665c battery life

[bruceb]

Is there any way to extend the battery life for this model? I've done all the usual (lowered backlight, turned off beam receive, disabled sounds). I'm able to get about 30 minutes before it's down to 75%, from there its dowhill quickly. Any help is appreciated.

You can underclock your CPU, the T665 has a 66Mhz clocked CPU using a tool like Afterburner will do the job. Underclocking you CPU will save some battery power.

Other option is to get an external battery adapter, mine uses 4 AA batteries and attaches to the bottom connector of the PDA, it charges and powers your PDA. The bad thing that this solution if far from perfect as you will need to carry to separate devices.

The last thing is to check if your battery is aging and need replacement, you will find at eBay new batteries and search in this forum for more information.

Another underclocking tool is FastCPU from Megasoft2000 the makers of MegaLauncher.
