Battery for Clevo M860TU (OcUK Ultima Mobile 15.4")

[python911]

I've had my gorgeous Ultima Mobile for the past month or so now and I've had no faults with it whatsoever. I don't think there is a better laptop on the market. OcUK put out yet again.

However the battery life sucks when you're out and about. Especially with all this Vista jazz on it. Now I know I should really be using a *nix distro if I wanna get some better battery life but thats not an option.

Does anyone know if OcUK will be selling batterys for the laptops individually or do any of you guys know where I can get one? I've heard there are some places that build custom batterys for you. Anyone got any advice? I could use a higher capacity battery for this thing.

i ordered mine a month ago and i'm still waiting for it to arrive.....

I recommend you turn off all the vista stuff and have a look at your power settings i'm sure theres lots of tweaking you can do to make it last longer(make sure gfx card is not doing much and make sure wifi is off, lower display brightness etc....)
