  12. I just replaced the original 1100 mAH battery pack in my PX-8 with one rated
  13. 1600 mAH.  I figured the increased capacity would be quite useful.
  14. Unfortunately, the new pack fails to fully charge, even when left charging
  15. for up to 18 hours.  Have any other PX-8 owners experienced anything similar?
  16. Also, does anyone know if the PX-8 needs to be modified to charge the batteries
  17. at a higher rate?  I know that charge rate is related to capacity.
