Title: AMRAM2 - Replacement for SAFT 40LF220 Battery
Post by: RWAP on 20:03, 26 April 16

I see that the AMRAM2 used the 40LF220 SAFT Memoguard 3.0V Lithium Encapsulated Cell battery which is now hard to find (or generally about £20 for a battery).

Someone has developed a replacement low profile holder which takes a CR2032 lithium battery - it is designed for use with the Sinclair QL's Super Gold Card which also needed a low profile replacement.

I don't have a AMRAM2, but I have bought some of these for my QL computers. Paul, the seller is super quick with dispatch. So recommended by me.

I have one, but it's too late because I already made my own version, it's not as nice, some wires, a CR2032 holder and some tape to stop it shorting on the board above :D

I think I must be almost the only person to have one of these amram2's.
