Fully functional with extra parts
Firstly, the MotherBoard (MB) itself can be comparable to the MB of a Dell Vostro A860 for instance as it can be fitted with an Intel T7700 or T7800 CPU, which greatly outperforms the default installed Intel T5870. Other variations (like T8100/T9500) can also be used. Keep in mind the correct socket (P) & wattage & you should be fine.
Secondly, the advantage is also the 34mm ExpressCard slot where you can install a 2-port USB 3.0 ExpressCard for instance to further boost performance. Sadly, the BIOS does not support booting (like a OS) from the ExpressCard slot or the SD card reader slot. Booting from a mSATA slot (using an mSATA SSD) is also of course a dream 4 this MB.
Thirdly, a common disadvantage of this MB is the BIOS (upgrades; like from F.08 to F.20), where if the user upgrades to the latest & last version (F.20), he can loose the functionality his mSATA WiFi card. This is due to the applied "whitelist" (restrictions on use of available-allowed mSATA WiFi cards), which comes with this version (F.20) of the BIOS.
In conclusion, the MB is still a decent sort of hardware for the Compaq 610 laptop, if the "right" CPU upgrade is applied & if the user decides to use a SSD replacement for the default magnetic SATA2 drives. Memory is set at max of 4 GB, running at 800 MHz which should still provide enough performance for the average user. Even if it is a gamer type.

Unefficient & fraudulent
Firstly, its is not capable of charging 9V Ni-MH/Ni-Cd (or the newer Li-ION) block type rechargeable batteries. Why ? Because the 4 terminals (2 by 2 configuration at the bottom front), if you take apart the wall charger itself, have no physical connection (via copper wires, etc.) to the PCB. Absolutely none. Those terminals are apparently there only for fraudulent/misleading purposes (decoration ?).
Furthermore, one does not even has to take apart the charger to realize this. Just a simple multimeter, set to measuring the output voltage on those terminals, will expose this fraud in the first place.
Secondly, the charging current for 18650 3.7 V Li-ION rechargeable batteries is way too low to get anything done (charged). Do yourself a favor & instead buy a TP4056 module or a decent wall charger for the 18650 type batteries (cost about from 2.3 - 5 $).
Thirdly, it is only good for charging 1.2 V AA/AAA Ni-MH type rechargeable batteries. I wouldn't trust it though to charge the Ni-Cd type cells.
In conclusion, this charger should be simply either completely redesigned to be able to actually charge the 9V type batteries (not to mention the 18650 ones as well) or terminated.

An excellent replacement for Best DT9205A digital multimeter
1 of 1 found this helpful Firsty, I bought these multimeter test leads as a replacement for my Best DT9205A digital multimeter. Its original test leads had way too thin copper wires (overall cross section), so as soon as I tried measuring some larger current(s), the leads melted.
Secondly, these probe wire leads seem to be better built, nice to handle, however up to this day I haven't tried them (yet) on measuring current greater than approx 4 A. So I don't know how they would perform on 10 A of current for instance.
Thirdly, the product has been tested on measuring high voltage & here I have no problems whatsoever. In addition, I also like that the leads come with caps on both ends of the red (+) & black (-) testing lead. For the actual measuring metal tip it is great as it (the cap) shields it from possible (future) corrosion.
In conclusion, the test probe wire leads seem to be a good replacement for the default shipped leads for (probably) all of selling digital multimeters.
