External Laptop battery. any experiences?

[flashbacck]

Hey all, I'm looking into getting an external laptop battery for my laptop, since I dont want to lose my dvd player to stick another battery in. Anyone know of any good models or have any opinions?

By external, I mean something that'll plug into the DC inlet where you normally put the AC adaptor.

thanks!

Here's two solutions:

Electrovaya

and

Valence

I haven't tried either of them, but from the literature it looks pretty good. The Valence solution looks better to me though (and it is cheaper).

I have a friend with the electrovaya one, and he really likes it.
