    My SZ670 is excellent, but I want to extend operating time on long flights with an external battery.

    Does anyone know how much energy this unit actually dissipates (in watts) when in "Stamina" mode, with a moderately bright screen, Bluetooth and WiFi off?

    I can buy a 90WH (45 watts for two hours) unit for about $100...

    I remember seeing an external universal battery at frys and at bestbuy.

    you can also alternatively get the battery "refilled"....don't remember the site, but after refilling the battery 10% longer.
