I've got a 4/33C with the extended life NiMH battery, and thought it might have something to do with the battery being "topped off" when already full. The symptoms disappear when running on AC without the battery pack, with the battery alone, or while the battery is charging. [A] I have the same problem and I do like you when it appears, I disconnect the power supply or put away the battery. [A] I experienced the problem under the MS-DOS 6.2 which came with the system. I was watching it for a while last night; 70 pulses, each lasting about 1 second, for a period of 4 minutes, every hour--like clockwork. Business Depot exchanged the unit today.
