Laptop Battery Tips Upgrade my Laptop Battery from NiMH to Li-Ion How can I maximize the performance of my laptop battery? What is the run time of a BatteryFuel laptop battery?

Laptop Battery Tips Upgrade my Laptop Battery from NiMH to Li-Ion NiCad, NiMH and Li-Ion laptop batteries are all fundamentally different from one another and cannot be substituted unless the laptop has been pre-configured from the manufacturer to accept more than one type of battery chemistry. Please refer to your laptop's manual to find out which rechargeable battery type your laptop device supports. Our product pages will automatically list all of the battery chemistries supported by your specific device. If your laptop does allow you to upgrade the battery from NiMH to Li-Ion, you will typically get longer run times. For example, if your laptop uses a NI-MH battery that is 9.6 Volts, 4000mAh and the new li-ion laptop battery is 14.4 Volt, 3600mAh, then you will obtain longer run time with the li-ion battery. Example: Li-Ion: 14.4 Volts x 3.6 Amperes = 51.84 Watt Hours Ni-MH: 9.6 Volts x 4 Amperes = 38.4 Watt Hours The Li-Ion is stronger and has longer run time.
