Just wanted to share my fun.. I was borrowing an Agilent 34970A datalogger for some temperature measurements... The other day I powered it up and the unit just kept rebooting/losing power... I felt so bad that it broke under my watch so i called Agilent who charges a flat $750 to fix it (ouch!)...
So I decided to open it up and take a look.. Found a ruptured 3V lithium memory battery soldered to the PCB... Ordered a new one for $8 bucks at Newark, soldered it back in and... All fixed horray!!! Saved myself $742...
