Default Picture -- Dell 6 Cell Battery - 05-08-2009, 09:54 PM

All, I just got my mini 10! Here are some pics of the 6 cell battery.





My mini 10 also has the HD screen as well and I must say that its really sharp. I'm in the process of loaded windows 7 on it.

Thanks for the pictures, doesn't seem like it's too much bulk.

Cool! Once you've used it awhile, let us know what to expect for "average" battery life.

Same "leg" thingy as the Mini 12... I guess if you don't mind the protuberance in exchange for the "extra" hours... In my case I want a Mini just because it is mini so I'll stick to the standard 3 cells...

THANKS for the pictures by the way, You are awesome!

Any time! I'll surely post how many hours of battery life I get with the 6 cell battery.

Thanks for the pics. Now if Dell will just offer the battery for sale to those of us that already have the 10. :roll:

Dude...

Did you copyright those phtotos? Engadget seems to think your camera work is the bees' knees!

Yeah, it also hit portablemonkey.com.

After some testing, it get about 5 1/2 to 6 hours of battery life. This just with normal web browsing, couple of youtube videos, hulu, and some word processing. Not too bad, but I'm hating that is sticks out so much.

I try to do some more further testing to get a better read on battery.

Hope that helps.

Hmm. I can get almost 4 hours on the 3-cell with an SSD (up from 2 1/2 hours). Now Dell is offering a larger (28WHr) 3-cell with Ubuntu. I doubt that even that combination could approach your battery life of 5 1/2 - 6 hrs. Good battery life but I hear ya about not liking the bulkiness.

Engadget takes news stuff from here all the time without giving any credit, not really sure what that says about the blog or the editors, they must just have some guy lurking around, but thanks again for the picture.
