Reply to "RK-1113L Protosound 1 PS1 Dryfuss Hudson without battery?"

I put one on the bench, without the battery, it just resets and comes up in neutral. If there's a way to run without a battery, I haven't heard about it. Do you have any links to such a technique?

Here's a quote from George (GGG) who probably has as much knowledge of the QSI and PS/1 boards as anyone here. I tend to believe him before blanket comments that I can demonstrate on my bench are not true.

GGG posted:

John, There were early QSI systems without batteries and then they added a battery but no automatic shut off circuit so they added a switch. These can operate without battery. Then they included the automatic battery shutdown circuit and by that time the programming got more complicated and the continuity of power was important. So after 95 or so a charged battery was necessary for QSI and ProtoSound systems.
