[LIB] Flexible batteries...
Date: Wed, 30 Oct 2002 09:47:25 -0800 From: Tom Stangl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Flexible batteries... http://www.flexionbatteries.com/home.html Anyone want to bug them about a battery sheet just slightly smaller than the footprint of an L100? Could you imagine a battery that added 1/4" thickness to an L100/110 but increased the battery life a ton? Imagine having a battery pack the same shape as the current one, but 1/8-1/4" deeper, and extending across the bottom of the L100/110, for truly long life portable use. Granted, you couldn't use the Enhanced replicator, but maybe the battery pack could be built to work around the SPR? Building a pack that utilized the entire volume of the current pack plus several cubic inches under the Lib would probably give a pretty decent battery time. Heck, even a separate battery pack with the L100/110 footprint and a cable, so it could be Velcroed under the EPR would be cool. Then you could Velcro it under the Lib or the EPR and jack it into the AC plug. Someone could design a case with the cheater circuitry built right in ;-) -- | Tom Stangl, Sun ONE Internet Technical Support, Sun Microsystems | Sun ONE Support - http://www.sun.com/service/sunone/software/index.html | Please do not associate my personal views with my employer ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

A bottom battery pack for my Libretto. Anyways, how many others would be interested? I'm sure they're not going to custom make one or two just because, or without a lot of money. Figuring that maybe four L100/110 battery packs could fit under the L100/110, in addition to the one in the slot itself, that makes it abot 4hrs x 5 = 20 hours of non-stop use! -- Of course, the other thing I was thinking was to put in a small air gap in between along with a mini-fan to help circulate the hot air out of the bottom of the Libretto. That would help keep the Libretto running cool even in desert like conditions. -- In any case, maybe just have a custom plastics manufacutrere come up with a few prototype cases we could fit with batteries ourselves?... Just wonder how we'd charge the entire thing... -- d =) = adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ __ Do you Yahoo!?

I'd be interested.. for a 50ct ;) Thats the only complaint i have with it.. not the speed, or the ram, or anything like that, it has plenty of disk space, at 6gb, and the overclocked 100mhz is perfect for playing mp3s in freebsd.. but i can't really do anything like that on the go, i've gotta be really close to AC power to use the lib.. about an hour or a little more on the single standard pack i have. just a thought.. - Jonathan Towne ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.
