    hey guys, i need some help with my laptop, recently i bought my laptop and the battery life isn't too great, but that's not a problem with me. i am trying to find a mobile exterior battery pack such as this one;

    Newegg.com - XPAL Power XP18000 Universal Charging Adapter and Portable Power Pack for all Laptops

    The problem is that im trying to find other ones because i have heard the energizer isn't that great, if anyone can recommend any, or knows if this one is good or not, help would be appreciated!

    -thanks!

    What kind of laptop do you have? Maybe you can get a separate battery with more cells for longer life instead of buying that thing.
