The only battery available at this time is the 3 cell that it comes with, so the only way to get more battery life is to have more batteries.

Watching movie uses 55min with lowest brightness. A normal laptop can at least last for at least a movie's time

Re: **OFFICIAL W860CU/NP8690 Owners Lounge**
Hmm, it is one of the major reasons why I haven't upgraded from an M860 to W860 yet either. While I probably wouldn't game on the run movies are a good way to pass and hour or so in travelling time, when by yourself.
Goes to show that Sager will always miss a gap in the market that want that extra hours battery life. Too bad we'll unlikely see them implement a smart-bay ala the m15x.

Re: **OFFICIAL W860CU/NP8690 Owners Lounge**
hi guys~ after much stalking, and creeping i've decided to buy the NP8690
just wanted to introduce myself
ps: i'm not a gamer and don't know much about computers (reading through your forums, this has been the most education i've recieved on laptops and such) but i'll be doing some hardcore editing, rendering and stuff for animation shorts in HD i'm doing.
so anyways, thanks for all the info!
cheers!
