Actually, NC10's original 6 cell battery provide a excellent 6:12 record.

Verdict
Acutally, NC10's original 6 cell battery is long enough for munch more netbook user, but Batterysquare's 9 cell battery is more 50% enough than the original. Indeed, it is excellent to have such recorded battery life by these weight and size of battery.
Nevertheless, you may find that the last 10% of Batterysquare's 9 cell battery is not linear enough and it is possible to lose it electric power unexpectedly. Besides, [color=Yellow]our test's coverage cannot include its safty and durability -- in fact, I have charged and discharged it for over 60 hours, but it (and I) is still heathy, so its safty and durability should be okay.
Of course, it is arguable to assert that more 50% battery life is value for USD$99.9, but you are still willing to pay it if you really greedy for battery life.
