After purchasing a laptop battery, before
using the battery to power the laptop notebook, you must charge the
battery. LaptopTraveller.com gives you some tips about how to check laptop battery power when chariging.
Usually, the laptop’s battery light gives you an indication of
the main battery’s current charge:
- Glows amber while the main battery is being charged
(AC adaptor connected) - Glows green when the main battery is fully charged.
- Is unlit when the battery has discharged, the battery is not
charging, or the AC adaptor is not plugged into the computer or AC outlet.
- Flashes amber when the main battery charge is low and it is time to recharge the main battery or plug in the AC adaptor.
Note: If the AC power light flashes amber during charging, either the
battery pack is malfunctioning, or it is not receiving correct
input from the AC power supply. Disconnect the AC power cord/cable and remove the battery pack.
What to Do When the Main Battery Runs Low
When the main battery runs low you can:
- Plug the laptop into an external power source and
recharge the main battery
- Place the computer into Hibernation mode and replace
the main battery with a charged spare
- Connect the laptop to an optional high capacity
battery. (LaptopTraveller.com provides selections of high capacity laptop batteries for most models of notebooks/laptops)
- Save your work and turn off the computer
If you do not manage to do any of these things before the
main battery completely runs out of power, the computer
automatically enters Hibernation mode and turns itself off.
Hibernation mode keeps track of where you were, so that
when you turn on the power again, you can continue where
you left off.
To avoid losing any data, save your files and then either completely shut down your computer or put it into Hibernation mode before changing the main battery. Do not remove the battery pack while the computer is in Standby Mode. Data is stored in RAM, so if the computer loses power it will be lost. When the computer is powered off in Standby Mode, and the AC adaptor is not connected, the main battery pack supplies power to maintain data and programs in memory. If the battery pack is completely discharged, Standby Mode does not function and the laptop pc loses all data in memory.

Setting a new standard in battery life, the Sony VAIO X Series’ battery life is good rather than great and a heavy use time of almost four hours is bettered by many much cheaper notebooks. The laptop comes with two interchangeable batteries: a standard VGP-BPL19 battery(3.5-hour) and VGP-BPX19, a larger, heavier, battery-and-stand combo that supposedly lasts for up to 14 hours. The large capacity 20-hour VGP-BPX19 battery that clips to the base, but this adds to the size and weight — defeating the whole point of spending so much on so slim a laptop in the first place.

The Dell Mini 10v netbook offers great value for anyone looking with a tight budget.
The Dell Mini 10v was the first mainstream Netbook to come out of the starting gate at this sub-$300 price.
Battery for Dell Mini 10v: Six-cells and three-cells are the order of the day for Netbooks. Each has issues: three-cells are cheaper and slimmer but last only a couple of hours, while six-cells are still bulky.

Asus Eee PC S101 - Fabulous Good Looks; Slim & Light
Enjoy All Day Computing with Eee PC S101 with the 7.4V 4900mAh Li-Polymer Battery
Original Part Numbers: AP22-U1001, LPS101B
Asus Built-in Super Hybrid Engine(SHE) provides you with more power per charge: up to 5.4 hours of mobile usage when you are out and about.
Asus still leads the netbook pack by some margin when it comes to battery life, thanks to the high-capacity cells supplied with its Atom-powered Eee PCs. Happily, the Eee PC S101 continues the trend and its 4900mAh cell stretched to 3 hours and forty-five minutes in Battery Eater’s heavy-use test, and just over five hours in light-use (Wi-Fi off and screen at mid-brightness, in both cases).
