    has anyone tried using the 12cell batteries on the older vaios? the 12 cell VGP-BPS2C is a good 400mah more than the standard 9 cell one. could this mean a genuine 2 hour use?

    400mah is really weak for going from 9cell to 12 cell !

    That's like not even 10% more for a "random" 10.8v 6 cell 4400mah battery
