OWC are good dependable vendors, who do their best to support product they sell. Cannot say the same about the NewerTech NuPower batteries for Wallstreet.
At end 2006 I bought simultaneously 1 x NuPower battery from OWC, and 1 x "2-Power" brand (cheap import from Asia) from a local battery specialist here in Australia. The NuPower Battery was DOA. I sent it back and received a replacement. That was also DOA. The 3rd battery they sent me was rated 4625 mAh, and lasted only a year until it too died. By comparison, the "2-Power" battery was 2/3 the price and performed faultlessly. It is rated at 4800 mAh, and still gives over 3 hours of use. When I ordered another one of these to replace the finally deceased NuPower above, it was even better than the previous, showing a 5400 mAh capacity in System Profiler. hth.. AD Do you have a link to a site that sells the "2-Power" wally battery? ============================================== On 2010-02-09 18:52 -0800, John Carmonne wrote: >On Feb 9, 2010, at 6:46 PM, JOHN CARMONNE wrote: > >> Hi all >> Has anyone had experience with the ProLogix batteries from OWC?
