Through you would be ideal.
But such dreams never come true.

Your last few responses have been truly comical.

Skybucks problems comes from a lack of female, or possibly male, intimate
contact.
 
Is that what happened? Well, whaddya know.

Very little now, I suppose, in any rhetorical sense if contrarian
truth can be established on an Aristotelean precept that everything is
something else when it breaks.

I stand utterly mystified and completely dumbfounded - much the same way
one feels after discovering that their cats have been glued together for
no particular reason.
 
Ha-ha.

The stupid thing is... I had dead motherboards with exactly these batteries
! ;) :)

Could have saved those 10 bucks ! LOL ;) =D

Bye,
Skybuck.

P.S. 1: Serves me right for listening to 15 year old kids ! LOL.

P.S. 2: I removed the batteries from the dead motherboards, maybe they ll
come in use some day ! ;) =D

P.S. 3: I got a huge ammount of surplus/additional equipment like cables,
could sell them off maybe for additional cash if needed ;)

For now it's ok lol. I am starting to feel like a hardware shop... or the
junk yard from transformers ! =DDDDD

Bye,
Skybuck ;) =DD ;)

Sitting in motherboards in a box for years most likely drained them. By the
way, the CR2032 batteries are usually $1.99 each in the US.

I think his synapses are shorted
 
Today was another weird day electronics wise.

I had to pull out all cables.

The monitor did not want to turn off.

The old PC also didn't boot.

It does this each time but this time it was worse.

Anyway what I need to do to make it work is:

1. I turn it on, but nothing happens.
2. I turn it off.
3. I turn it on again and the PC goes into the BIOS stating that CPUs
setting was wrong.

I tried setting volts for cpu to 2.00, 2.05, 2.10 but that didnt help.

Really strange how it doesn't want to boot up the first time.

Any ideas what could be causing this ?

Bye,
  Skybuck.

OK, good source as long as they are name brand .I am not going to stick a

pack of made in vietnam Cr2032's in my motherboards.


I was just trying to point out the SkyF&*k that they should ever be $5 a

A recent buy from China got me a card of 5 Sony, made in Japan, for $0.99,
delivered!
Good "use by date" as well.

Sorry Chris, but your naivety is showing.

Those markings and a buck won't even get you a cup of coffee. Markings
mean little in China.

p.s. here is an ebay guide on spotting fake Sony batteries. If you
send the packaging photos to Sony for verification and they report the
batteries are genuine, then I will believe it.

As you can seem, the fakes are really quite good, including holograms.
You may not care that they are fake, but if they leak and damage your
device, you may care. More likely they'll just not last as long as the
genuine cells.

They are not cells, they are batteries.

I'm a retired EE from NBS (now NIST).
They pass the tests that I care to apply. Voltage under load, physical
inspection.
I'll post back in >5 years to test my naiveté.

Okay, then not the 3V CR2032 Li button single cells we were talking
about. What manner of battery or cell are they?

Cool. Does the nominal voltage agree with them being Magnanese Dioxide
Lithium chemistry (or whatever they are supposed to be)? AFAIUI, some
of the fake primary lithium cells are actually alkaline.

If they were Panasonic CR2032s they should have just under 3.0V
voltage at 20°C with a 15K load:

If you put a resistor across one and noted the voltage on a daily
basis it would only take a month or two, and you'd have a nice curve.

Well, unless you misspoke, if the batteries are marked "Sony" on the
card, and stamped "Matsushita" individually, they are as fake as they
come. As of a few years ago, Matsushita is now called Panasonic
worldwide, a completely different company from ('to') Sony. The
Matsushita name has been retired.
