Hey every one I am a taper that uses a powerbook g4 for tapeing and hate that the batterie lasts like 3 hr. I went looking for a good batterie that last longer . I find one here is the link http://www.macmall.com/macmall/search/search.asp?search=powerbook+batteries&submit1.x=14&submit1.y=7&CurDSN=simple&calledfrom=1&incimage=on . I hope that I could be of some help to all of you.
Looks like just replacement batteries. Unless I'm missing something. ???
I ment this link http://www.valence.com/ncharge.asp
Yeah the NCharges are pretty well known (I own one). ;) There are a few other solutions as well.
John, curious what you use...I may toy around with taping with our dual-USB iBook this fall if I can get a decent battery...

I use to tape with my iBook using the NCharge. I should probably sell the NCharge since I don't do any laptop taping anymore...
"Long term loan" ;)
Hey john If are going to cell your NCharge what are you cell it for.
What is a good setup for recording to a powerbook?
Is it possible to take a mic straight into the phono jack, or would it be best to run it through something like a mini-me or us-122 first?
I use a UA-5 and love it. I don't know if it would work with out a pre. Take a look at the ua-5 dose not cost a lot and works grate. It can even do 24. I hope that I could be of some help.
I just use my powerbook and send it into sleep and switch batteries at set break. It's pretty rare I see someone play for 3 straight hours. even then I tend to run a backup dat tape. better to have some tape than no tape at all.
