 The MyDigital 5200mAh Extended Life 14.8V Battery is high quality 8-cell replacement for the stock battery included with your netbook. Each extended life battery fits smoothly into your netbook, can last up to 10 hours without the need to plug in for a charge, and offers an ergonomic typing angle for work or play. This battery is best suited for PCs running BIOS revision A04 or earlier and is available now on MyDigitalDiscount.com and the MyDigitalDiscount.com eBay Store for only $64.99.

What's the exact reason why customers need to be aware of what BIOS version they're running to use this extended life battery? I mean if customers end up having to do additional work to change the BIOS version of their computer, possibly even having to downgrade it as well as pay money, they should at least know why.

The main issue is the A05 BIOS as we've found that there are recognition and charging errors when used with that particular revision. All previous BIOS revisions that we have tested prior to that have worked without a problem. You can find a note about this on both our product page as well as our auction as we aim to notify all customers before purchasing.

This would definitely be in my shopping cart for my Hackintosh Mini9 ... if it weren't running A05 BIOS.  )

I received my battery today and after fully charging it, OSX is showing 10 hours of time remaining. In the other thread re the battery, someone asked if the battery prevented the screen from opening up fully- it does, but I didn't measure the degree to which the battery blocks the screen. My Mini 9 is running OSX (10.5.8) and the A04 BIOS. |
