x300 Battery Specs

[Toups]

For those interested I was able to pull together some specifics on the battery options for the x300 laptops. One interesting observation is the 6-cell battery (although a lower voltage) is 58% larger than the standard 3-cell main battery and only 16% less than the standard 3-cell main battery and 3-cell bay batteries combined. Also, if combined, the 6-cell primary and the 3-cell bay batteries would yeild a total capacity of 66.9 watts @ 1.10 lbs bringing the total system weight to approximately 3.3-3.4 lbs with a "real world" battery life of 6-8 hours.


Battery Watts Volts AH Weight
3-cell primary 27.3 11.2 2.44 .51 lbs
6-cell primary 43.2 10.8 4.00 .66 lbs
3-cell bay 23.7 11.2 2.12 .44 lbs
