You will greatly surprised that extending the battery uptime life is as easy as turning down screen brightness. Also, the benefits of a second battery is a must have for a serious PowerBook user.

I personally own a battery from OWC and have been greatly surprised at the battery I bought. It actually works better than advertised and matches the paint on my old TiBook.
