 |
|
Hi guys,
I've got a question about replacing my battery. I seems I don't have one!
I've seen a lot of pictures on the net but none of them resembles the inside of my poly 800.
I'm one of the first to own one since my serial number is 0000414 and I am wondering if the first poly 800's used another way to preserve the memory content?!?
Can you spot the battery for me?
Can anybody please help me because I really want to bring my first love back to life.....
Regards,
Has67 |

| Only the MKii had a backup battery. |

Sorry for necro-ing an old thread, but this is wrong.
Later specimens of the Poly-800 mk I (such as mine - and I know that for sure since I opened and modified the synth so I saw it with my own two eyes ) have a backup battery. Only the first ones didn't.
This is a picture of a Poly-800 mk I that shows the battery.
The position marked with a red circle in one of the previous posts is thus correct.
