Laptop batteries have been known to have serious issues, specifically extreme over-heating. I'd be more concerned about that than the fact that they don't hold a charge very long...
How many "3rd party" battery vendors will stand behind the damage this may cause? -- richard "Carl Houseman" <[email protected]> 03/11/2011 04:48 PM Please respond to "NT System Admin Issues" <[email protected]> To "NT System Admin Issues" <[email protected]> Press this button if the "To" is a fax number.

Your jury is still out.

I probably should have listened to you guys when you griped about me jumping on the first thing that I came up with, but it seems to have turned out OK. The first battery I got from the Amazon vendor was apparently bad as it didn't even last 5 minutes, but the replacement battery is working over 2 hours according to the user. I think that in the future, I'll go with the OEM on batteries. :-) Thanks, all! ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
