![]() I'd love some advice on this topic too. The battery that is currently in my newly acquired & refurbed mini9 is just your stock-standard 14.8V 32W battery that lasts approx. 2hours on a good day. Not bad but i'd like to get an extended battery that lasts 3-4 hours word processing or surfing the net. Greedy i know, but eventually i will need a new battery and prices aren't too bad at the moment and i'd like to get something before they become obselete.
Amazon has always given fairly quick shipping to AU for me before so a quick search on Amazon revealed these results. 150+ results under $49. Okay... After reading many of the customer reviews i quickly became horrified at some of the problems owners have had especially with DOA products. The BetterPower extended battery had great reviews but comes in a little costly for me about $55 + shipping although if it really lasts for 8hours i am so tempted to get it. Does anyone have experiences with other brands that come in a little cheaper or have ordered through Amazon internationally? ![]() |

![]() I am happy so far with my attbatt.com hi cap battery in my Mini 9. I get about 10hrs (yes, 10 hours) on a charge with surfing. Watching videos brings it down to around 6hrs. It will be 1 yr around september I think. I also got a hicap battery for my Studio 14Z, and I went from 3hrs to 6hrs per charge. Not bad I think.
