    i'm looking for a laptop external battery that can plug into either the charger hole or a USB port, hopefully about the size of my open hand or even smaller. can anyone give any recommendations?

    thanks

    You have an intel processor, so you should be able to undervolt the processor. I have a desktop replacement, and undervolting gave me an additional 2 minutes. If you undervolt, you will probably get 10 more minutes.

    Download a copy of cpu rightmark clock management or as some know it as rm clock.

    If you need help, I will show you how to do it.
