Mac Powerbook 140 Battery  Replacement

Introduction

Go to step 1 ↓

Follow this guide to replace the hard drive in your Macintosh Powerbook 140 computer. Always ensure all of your parts are compatible and will not damage your computer or pose any health or safety hazards. Always make sure you keep track of all parts. Wash hands thoroughly after handling components. Most of all, USE COMMON SENSE.

NOTE- I am no computer expert. Please notify me of any errors or necessary changes. Thanks!

Conclusion

It is not required, but I always find it useful to save the old battery, lest you need it later. Unless the battery is leaking, or poses some other health/safety issue(in which case dispose of it in the proper manner), store it in a battery-safe environment.

I can’t find a replacement battery anywhere, they’re either out of stock or in another powerbook on ebay and those cost $80 with the chance that the battery in them is dead too.
