    Hello All

    I just bought a XPS M1530 and I also bought a spare 9 cell battery as I am using this on the road. Does anybody know of an external battery charger? Something so I can have one battery charging in the Laptop and one out of the laptop.

    Thanks for your help

    I don't think such a thing exists yet. Besides, shouldn't you just fully charge the battery whilst using the laptop. Once it's full then replace it with the other battery to recharge it?

    It would take twice as long.

    As regards on the road performance I'd have bought an external battery instead of the second 9-cell.
