Everlast Laptop Battery

For the past few days I haven’t had wireless access. I’ve been away from power supplies in presentations and meetings so I thought to disable the wireless airport on my Powerbook. This has resulted in a battery life that I formerly thought not possible. I’m getting crazy battery lengths of 5-7 hours, it’s awesome. This is a recommendation to remember to disable wireless in your laptop when given the opportunity. Yes, it’s a relatively obvious thing to say, but the results if you have a 15″ Apple Powerbook will astound you.

    Hmmm…. I get 5 hours on my battery anyway, but I never thought the wireless running would really do anything. Interesting, I’ll have to try it next time I’m on the computer and not using the internet (but when does that happen really?)

    The command-option-cntl-8 thing is sortof crazy. :)
