    ok, i know there are like 1000 threads with different batteries but basically more than half of them have pictures missing :|

    so. im interested in buying a battery with 4~5hours of life at least, preferably 6 cell and not the huge 7200ma ones

    there are 4400, 5200, 6600 :shock: what dimension differences are there? weight differences? how do they look on the AAO (side pictures welcome :) ) and also where and how much did you get them for? (i am in the UK with a blue AAO)

    thanks for any help/input

    ps: if this is in the wrong section sorry plz move :oops:

    you said you didn't want one of the 7200 mAh 9-cell batteries, but that's the one I got. It works great from a battery perspective... giving me about 5.5 - 6 hours while connected with my VerizonWireless USB service, longer if I don't use wifi or Verizon. It elevates the rear of the AAO providing a nice keyboard tilt, and also fits nicely in my hand, using it as a 'handle" when carrying it in the case. Mine came from global-laptop-batteries.com http://www.global-laptop-batteries.com/ ... ttery.html . ~$75US + $20 shipping from Hong Kong.

    I have a 5200mAH 6 cell battery that came with my unit. The 6 cell is a nice compromise between the 3 cell size and the 9 cell size.
