14 hours!! I am in a similar position. I am thinking of doing a tour of a few months and will need to take a netbook to work on. I have got an Acer aao and the original battery only lasts about 2.5 hrs. I recently bought a 9 cell for it and that gives 8-9 but I didn't realise just how big and heavy it was going to be. I am now wondering whether to bother with it or just take the original and acceppt that I will need to find somewhere I can plug in when I need to work which is only for a few days a month.

joe, your panel looks good. I will be interested to hear how you get on with it.
