Can I save these Macintosh SE/30 Computers?- Mac SE/30 Project

Описание: In this video we take a look at a pair of Vintage Apple Macintosh SE/30 computers that I found at a garage sale. We will look at the affects of a battery failure and determine if either of these classic computers can be saved.

The use of WD40 to treat the battery leakage was inspired by a thread on Adrian's Digital Basement. It is the top comment on this video:    • Mac Repairathon Part 2: More inspections, ...

RavenWolf Retro Tech restores and explores many kinds of retro technology. Up-coming videos include the completion of the 1984 Osborne Executive we unboxed in an earlier video, a 1980s HP 15c scientific calculator restoration and a deep dive into ways to output the display on the C64.

Now that I am in the new shop and the wildfires have passed us by (they missed us by 5 miles!). I plan to have at least 2 videos out per month, hopefully more. I had originally planned for one a week, but I did not take into account the documentary like nature of these videos. I would rather give you 2 good videos per month that 4 bad ones.
