    I'm thinking of buying the 12 cell for my dv6113us. It's a amd turion x2 so it drains my 6 cell pretty fast (only last for like 1.5-2 hrs w/out wifi and screen dimmed) It's pretty horrible.

    So I saw that newegg has some 12 cell in stock now, but I'm still trying to decide if it's worth it ($135). Do anybody else have this battery and is using it with this model or something similar. How much time do you get out of it?

    12 cell nearly doubles the 6 cell. For Turion's, probably 4 hours.

    I get 4.5 to 6 hours on my 12-cell with wi-fi on and power on 'balanced' defaults. Then again, my screen is smaller (14.1" vs. 15.4"), so that may explain the difference.
