Extended life battery - nw series

Hi all,

I'm looking to get an extended life battery, just curious from the pics of the battery how it sits. Does it extend out the back any further than the stock 6 cell? Does it kick the rear of the notebook up at an angle? Anyone happen to have of any point me to any pics of the notebook sitting on the battery? I was unable to find them and am just trying to decide if I should just replace the 6 cell or go extended depending on how obtrusive it is.

Thanks very much

 

Hope this helps...

It's for the nc8430, but they use the same batteries.

 

That is a huge help, thank you, night! Do you happen to know if the 8 cell lifts the rear as well?

Thanks again

 

Yes it does, by about the same amount too. I have the 8-cell...it just doesn't stick out behind.

 

Great info, thanks again

 

One nice things about the 8-cell battery is that you can use the docking station while its on (due to the C shape it has), which may or may not be useful for you.

Also the 12-cell battery comes with its own AC adapter to charge it.
