OK, so I toasted the charging circuit on my 5500 while making a home battery extender - stupidly got +and- the wrong way round. Now it won't charge the battery internally, but works fine if I charge the battery in the external charger, then place the battery in the Z, or run the Z connected to the AC adapter.
Got a bit fed up with only being able to use for 2 hours on the road, so bought a SL-C860 and now want to get a few bucks back for this one... Here's what I'm selling:
- SL-5500 bought Nov 2003 in California - Latest Sharp ROM installed.
- Everything works great except charging circuit is faulty and loose stylus
(my son chewed the end off the original!!!)
- Original EA-BL06 Battery - works fine
- Box, Manuals, Installation CD
- AC Adapter
- Cradle
- 24Mb Delkin Devices CF Card
- Stylus (from my new SL860 - a bit loose since I think they changed slightly)
(I bought a nicer metal one for my 860)
- Sharp External Battery Charger - I paid extra $ for this
- Nice Zaurus Leather Case (Black)
- Home Made Battery Extender (now working :-) - gives 8+ hours with 8 Ni-MH
(not including batteries - too heavy for the shipping cost!)
I recently moved to Japan, but will ship "as a gift", so you'll pay no import taxes. Willing to ship anywhere. You pay actual shipping probably around 20 bucks by air - cheaper by boat! Alternatively, I'll be travelling to the UK and US Late Dec/Early Jan, so could ship from there if willing to wait.
I have no idea what to ask, so make me an offer. I guess all the parts alone are worth something as spares to somebody.
I have a PayPal account
PM me if your interested in all/some of the above
