Q: How to recharge battery on I book G4

Was recently given an old I Book G4. No idea if it works yet. I took the battery out and I want to charge it. Do I need a special charger and can I get one? This laptop hasn't been used in a long time.

iBook, Other OS, Don,t know which OS.

The battery is probably dead and may not charge. You can get a charger at a good price through Amazon. The ones that are listed for the iBook G4 and PowerBook G4 are the correct ones.

Thankyou. I looked on E-Bay and ordered a new battery and a battery charger for a total of $30.00. It seemed cheaper than taking it to an Apple store where they would have probably charged me more than that just to look at it. Thanks again.
