    Hello
    My name is Roger (1st post ever on this forum)

    I have a 11.6 inch Acer Aspire One (Model # 1410-2990)

    I am looking for a replacement battery for my netbook. I am looking for a battery that lasts 6 hours or more between charges.
    Acer of America said it must be a 6 cell. I looked for batteries on line but it is confusing. What does the mah # like 4400 or 6600 mean or the wh #? is a higher mah number mean the battery will last longer, like maybe 6 hours????

    Has any one replaced there battery what did you get and how long will your computer run between charging????
    THANK YOU!!!!
    Roger

    I bought a massive 12-cell on eBay. I can get upwards of 10.5hrs out of it on a good day. Only cost me about $58 AUD or so. I started a review of it in the Buy/Sell/Trade section here link.
