Great alternative to a laptop replacement battery January 16, 2006
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I asked for this for Christmas knowing that I was going on a cross country flight in early January. Even new, my laptop was never much for battery perfomance. I could squeeze 3 hours out of the battery provided I ran on low power setting and limited myself to office applications. Now, I'm down to about an hour of total battery life.
So, natually I was excited that my older laptop would have new life when I unwrapped my new Tekkeon myPower. In terms of performance, the myPower has exceeded my expectations. I get a full 3 hours using my laptop's maximum performance settings. No more squinting at dim screens just to conserve a little extra power! I never came close to running out of power on my cross country flight.
The myPower unit comes with a nice leather case that prevents the unit from sliding off of smooth surfaces. It also comes with 8 adapters for different voltage levels. Be warned that the adapters may or may not work with your laptop. My laptop acutally uses a 15 volt input but the myPower delivers a maximum of 14 volts. Fortunately, 14V is enough to power my laptop and still slowly charge it. Make sure that whatever you are planning to charge uses 14V or less. Check with Tekkeon before purchasing.
Aside from potential compatibility issues, there are some minor drawbacks to this device. First, it is a little larger than I had expected. Not a big deal for me but don't expect something the size of a deck of cards. The unit is roughly the size of a small paperback book and weighs a little bit more. The leather case makes it a little larger and adds a few ounces. Another drawback is that you can only power one device at a time. So, you won't be able to run your mp3 player and charge your cell phone at the same time.
In all, this is a great (and less expensive) replacement for an old laptop battery. It provides plenty of power and conveniently tucks away inside my laptop case. Just make sure you won't have any compatiblity issues before you buy.

The thing is amazing. I have an igo charger but when I'm stuck at an airport due to a delay and I don't want to sit on the floor in some in inconvenient location this is the product to have. The gadgets I own (and my GF) that it charges are:
1) Dell Axim x50v (using Axim tip with the tip that charges PSP)
2) 60gb video iPod
3) Blackberry 7230
4) PSP
5) Motorola A630
6) Motorola Bluetooth Headset
7) Sony DSC L1 Digital Camera
The thing even powers my JBL On Stage if you can believe that. I had to buy extra tips from the manufacturer, Tekkeon to power items 2,3,5,6 and 7. I spent about $20-25 on those tips. It's a tad on the large size but the main thing is it works.
