External/Universal Battery for Notebooks

Has anyone used the APC Universal Notebook Battery -80 with a Powerbook? Saw someone on a plane with an external battery, worked fine on a Mac, and it was from Brookstone. Brookstone is no longer selling it but is selling the APC. Anyone know anything about it, or a way to get a powerbook battery to last longer on long flights, like for movies.
Powerbook G4, bought in June 2004, 12" screen.

Here are two different sights that will give you some options. I just did a quick Google search for external powerbook batteries and came up with them. I hope they help.

The top one is a advertized more powerful internal battery for a 12 inch (look around the sight for others) and the second link is a universal external battery that is supposed to have a tip for the apple laptops.

  • What are the best external backup battery choices for the iPod Touch 4G?

    Hello,
    I am so disappointed with the battery life on my iPod Touch 4G, even when I turn off location services and notifications and put it in airplane mode. 
    As such, I realize that I am going to have to get an external backup battery, even though I don't like the idea of carrying around yet another item. 
    What are the best choices out there, especially any ultra-portable (aka small and non-bulky) ones?  I came across this Juice Pack Air - iPod Touch 4G Case, which seems like the perfect solution, but it is on back order and seems to have been so for a good amount of time.  Who knows when it will be in stock again.
    TIA for any and all help!

  • Would Anker pro work as external battery for Macbook retina ?

    Would Anker Pro 20000 mah work as an external battery for Macbook retina ? I saw a few other options like hyper juice and energizer but I'm looking for something under $100 and preferably portable.

  • Need to find a replacement battery for a mid 2007 Mac notebook. MBO061LL/A

    Recently picked up a Mid 2007 Mac notebook, white.  The battery is shot.  Need to pick up a replacement.  The batteries available at Amazon don't come with rave reviews.  Does anybody have a source or a reputable company where I can pick up a new battery, for a reasonable price?

    Here is a link for the battery, the price is not that polite ($90) but it is the right battery I believe.
    Check it out ! http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-White-Battery-020-5071-B-A1185-for-MacBook-13-A1181- 2006-2007-2008-2009-/221371268219

  • What is the best external battery for iphone 4s

    what is the best external battery for iphone 4s

    I bought the Mophie juice pack™ powerstation from the Apple store for $80. It has more then enough power to quickly boost the charge on my iPhone4S to an acceptable level. It requires the standard 30pin/USB Apple cord to plug into it.
    But unless you need to charge your phone from 5-100%, this battery is overkill. It's a real hassle having the Apple cord connected to your phone whilst there's a battery in your pocket and you end up looking quite strange with your "corded" smartphone.
    I might recommend a battery case (Mophie has these), but they don't offer the protection that I need (I use a LifeProof case).  Instead I would buy a smaller Mophie juice pack™ reserve (keychain, direct plug) to get out of a bind and then charge up your iPhone in the car, wall, airplane, etc.
    My only concern with the above (direct plug batteries) is that the slightest bump and the battery becomes a lever that could break the 30 pin plug on your phone, just like that warily flimsy feeling when you put an iPhone in a dock.
    Hope that helps, at least in the Mophie department!

  • The Best External Battery for 5th Gen iPod

    I read something a while back about a new external battery for the iPod that gets ridiculous results. Im talking about 80 worth of music playback and 20 hours of video. But I cant remember the name of it. Does anyone else know which one Im talking about?
    KT

    There are tons of different external battery packs, systems and do it yourself solutions out there for iPods as well as generic USB devices. So unless you know something more specific about the one you saw, I doubt any of us can pin point it with "external" and lots of power, as most of them boost this stuff.
    Do a web search and you will likely find many more candidates.

  • External battery for iPad 2?

    I want to use my iPad 2 (purchased in Australia) on a 24 hour international flight.  Is there some kind of external battery I can buy so I can use the iPad 2 for longer than the standard 10 hours?

    Google or Bing is your best friend.  However, I'll do it for you this time...
    http://www.bing.com/search?q=external+battery+for+ipad&form=APMCS1
    Also, more and more airlines are putting power ports in coach seat locations.  I think they all have them in F/C or business class.  You can buy a power port adaptor from Apple or other locations that will power your iPad from either an airline seat or a car with a power port.

  • External, portable back-up battery for iPad

    I'll be serving in the Peace Corps and may not have access to unlimited electricity as I do in the states. I'm looking for your recommendations on external, portable back up batteries for iPad - both what you like and what you don't like; what you'd recommend and what was a waste of your money.
    Thanks.

    I've used external batteries from New Trent and have always found them to be reliable and a very good value. Search Amazon for "New Trent" or visit their web site (with the same name).
    Be sure you check the battery for 2.1 amp output (for tablet) that is capable of charging the iPad properly.

  • Replacement battery for tx2-1274dx notebook PC

    My laptop is 15 months old and already getting a message to replace battery. Battery power lasts approximately 30 minutes. I have been unable to locate a replacement battery. That model tx2-1274dx, doesn't show up on the hp website. Where can I get a replacement battery? Thanks in advance  benroz3

    Thanks for the post benroz3!
    There are a couple ways to get an HP replacement battery for your laptop. 
    First you can call in to HP Support if you like and a replacement can be set up for you and purchased, or you can go to the HP Parts Store and search using the product number or serial number of your system. It will show you the battery options available and you can directly purchase from there as well.
    Hope this helps you out!

  • CMOS / RTC Battery for Satellite A100-326?

    Hi,
    I'm after a replacement CMOS/RTC battery for my A100-326
    I've got my machine open and located the battery but it has no model number on it.
    I have contacted a Toshiba assistance center and they replied that the battery is part of the board and the whole board has to be replaced. However, if I can find the reference for the battery, I have a friend in a computer store that will replace it with a new one.
    Any help would be great. Thanks!
    Regards
    Srgio

    Hi
    Why you want to replace this
    Such battery is reachable
    To charge the RTC battery you have to connect the AC adaptor to the notebook.
    The main battery should be inserted too and the notebook should run for 20.24 hours.
    Anyway, as far as I know its a Lithium Ion RTC battery 3V and 14mAh

  • Recommendations, please, for external DVD writer for my 2006 iMac. (Internal drive unable to write coherently.)

    Recommendations, please, for an external DVD writer for my 2006 iMac whose internal drive is writing unreadable discs.

    Thanks, A Brody.  Don't know what the PRAM battery is.  Here are more details of the fault ... Although I've had the iMac for 5 years this may be the first time I've tried copying a video recording onto the DVD drive (I've made lots of CD copies without a problem).  The folder and files all seem to be reproduced in identical order on the disc but my domestic DVD player cannot make sense of the recording, unlike the original source DVD from which the files originated.  The drive has always been noisy but I've never assumed it shouldn't be!  Does this fit your PRAM battery theory?  If so, please explain more.  Thanks.
