I would like to hear from those of you with a 15" T60 and 6 cell battery.
How much run time are you getting and under what conditions? I seem to get just 3 to 3.5 hours with office apps, wireless on, and full brightness.
Thanks...

I'm getting about 3-3.5 hours with brightness 2 notches down from max and with wireless on. This is mainly with just surfing the web. With the ultraslim and the 6-cell batteries, lowest brightness and wireless off, I can get about 5.5 hours while running a power-point presentation on a projector.
Other than these 2 occasions, I've yet to use my T60 on battery all that much. I will try out battery life over the next few days and report back here.
cheers!

I get about 3.5 - 4 hours: surfing the net and using MS Office.

With the 6-cell battery and on max. brightness and max. performance power scheme (to reduce fan noise
) I can just about watch a 2-hour DVD film.
(I use the 6-cell battery when shuttling between home and office, for travelling and customer visits the 9-cell battery is obviously better.)
