Trouble finding 9-cell battery for my netbook.

Post by Isaac »

I've looked on google shopping, dell.com, and other places on the internet. But I can't seem to find a 9-cell battery for a Dell Mini 10v.

It already has great battery life with the 6-cell, but when I use it from 7am to 11pm non-stop I always have to plug-in at least once.
I'm either taking notes, reading my text books, making flash cards, and all the other non-work related stuff, on my netbook. So it would be really nice to extend my battery life, with out needing to switch batteries.
Keeping two batteries charged with one laptop would be harder than just plugging in.

Thank you Internet people!

Welcome to using laptops 101. You can't get away from plugging it in. Unless you dim your screen a lot, don't use cd drive, minimal HD usage and not watching movies.

That's because it doesn't exist. Try looking for a 6 cell battery. You probably currently have the 3 cell that fits inside the laptop right? The 6 cell sticks out and I imagine a 9 cell, if it existed, would be hideously huge.

Manual works, use it

I seem to have a better workout dodging your stupidity than attempting to grasp the weight of your intelligence.
