    Looking for places & prices to buy longer lasting HP Battery.

    I have an HP ze4430us notebook and my battery is on it's way out. The normal replacement would be a 8-cell lithium-ion 14.4 battery.

    Doesn't look like HP makes the larger 12 cell battery for the ze4430us. The HP part number for your battery is F4812A. I would look on Pricegragger.com and ebay for the lowest prices. Make sure you buy a HP made battery and not a third party one. Good Luck.

    How much longer does a 14.8v battery last then a 14.4v if at all?

    I'm thinking it won't be much of a difference.

    HI :)
    I would like to know if it's possible that the "Li-ion Battery 2200mAH/3.7V (6-cell) - Battery Life: 3 hrs( 256+256MB Memory, Dothan 1.7GHz CPU, Backlight: Max)" could last over 2 hours? It's sonoma platform barebone.
    Can anybody explain "2200mAH/3.7V" battery configuration?
    Is It has more than twise less capacity than for example "6 cells, 11.1V/ 4400mAH" battery?

    Thanx
