I bought one of Glitchworks' DS1287 battery modules a while back, and I've been having some oddities with it:
1. I've lost a Modem/Memory Card connector module because of what seemed like bad memory. (technically it still works, the pins of the smaller male header connector were bent so far out of alignment that I just took a heat gun and desoldered the header without much trouble, but now I can't find the proper 100-pin connector that fits with it.)
2. I get a 102 - System Board Failure message at startup when the chip is powered with the battery.
3. The internal clock seems to be counting up Minutes : Seconds : Milliseconds (with the last two zeroes chopped off), instead of Hours : Minutes : Seconds, because when I started the diag disk, and got to the clock setting, the internal clock started acting more like a stopwatch than an actual clock.
