Tekkeon MP3450 myPower ALL Rechargeable Battery |
  I purchased this to use in a small airplane that has no cigarette lighter plug-in. I use a GPS that has no internal battery. The unit is small and easy to use but the battery life is only 8 or so hours at most and is sensitive to higher temperatures. I was flying with it last weekend and the battery life was very short – only several hours. It shut off long before I expected. |

Lenmar PPU1619 Universal Laptop Battery (External) for All 16V – 20V Models, with Usb Powerport |
 I ordered this item against my better judgement considering all the negative reviews. Unfortunately, my faith was not rewarded. The unit I received would not hold a charge, so I returned it. I thought about playing the return for replacement lottery until I got a working unit, but decided poor initial quality had a high likelihood of translating into poor lifetime quality. Sad, this looks great in concept. |

External Laptop Battery Charger for Dell Inspiron Vostro 1510 1400 Series Laptops (External/Standalone) |
 My laptop refuses to charge my battery so this worked out as a good solution to replacing my motherboard (which is where I think the problem may be). It does the job but the method of connecting it to the battery is poor. You slide on the connector and hope it stays on. If I set it on the floor just right, it’s OK. Overall, it works though so I’m happy. |
