P6 battery voltage readings: does this look right?

2009-12-26 by r_j_d_2.phila

greetings, all-happy holidays. got a P6 battery question, to follow up on my draining battery issue:

i've taken the 367 board out, and cleaned/checked all of the traces around the battery area. i didnt see any resistance at a low reading level that looked abnormal. i installed a battery clip socket. now, here are my battery readings for a brand-new battery:

-OUT OF MACHINE=2.7V
-IN MACHINE, MACHINE OFF=1.5V
-IN MACHINE, MACHINE ON=2.4V

does this look normal? i probably wont know for another day or two if it drains, but wanted your feedback on if these readings sound normal. thanks, rj
