Title: Apple laptop external battery?
Post by: taper420 on March 15, 2006, 05:19:07 AM
I'd like to hear from anyone who has run an ibook or powerbook with an external battery. I'm looking at one right now with 133wh for $200. The seller says it is the one he recommends for the ibook, as it is the only one that goes upto 25volts...the ibook uses 24.5. I'd like to know if this is a decent price...if it's not do you know of any externals that your sure work with the ibook (or powerbook)? I know allot go up to 24v but the laptop specifies 24.5 volts needed? I'd really like to hear from someone who has actually used an external battery with there apple laptop. Also.... how much record time (no phantom or display) should I expect to get from 133wh?
Thanks
