iBook battery doesnt charge quickly

Hi,


I've got an iBook G4 Model and the battery literally trickle charges, as in if I leave it overnight it will charge the battery 12% more.


2 different batterys have been tried and ive replaced the DC in board but could this be the power adapter?


When its running on battery I get stats of Amperage -1038 (Assuming thats normal under usage?) and Voltage is 11531 and Cycle Count is 3 (this is the new battery in).


When the power adaptor is in the amperage only goes to 30.......I;m assuming it should be more than that to charge the battery sufficiently??


Thanks, Luke

iBook, Mac OS X (10.4.8), 12.1", 1.33Ghz, 1.5GB Ram, 40GB HDD
