I understand that the 1201N battery is interchangeable with the battery for the UL20. See here: http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?id=82183

Curious. Why wouldn't you be looking at the ASUS Eee 1000HA? Its battery life is virtually identical to the Samsung and is available on Amazon for $399. ASUS is a very big name in both laptops and netbooks.

Mine was labeled something else, but most brand name manufacturers contract out batteries and just slap their own sticker on it.What I can tell you the battery I got was a decent one, lasted about 3-4 hrs and worked with all power states and levels both windows and Linux. Just saying your results and mileage may vary, contact a professional if you get mileage or results longer than four hours

This battery works great for our computer. It has more battery power than the previous battery supplied with the computer. Make sure you have the correct battery for your computer.

Well, I did purchase the little mouse a while back, and I'm very happy with it- it's Great and no problems with my ASUS eee pc. I've used it almost daily for ~5 mo. now, and still have not needed to change battery! --- I recommend it.

This is a friend's computer---when it stopped holding a charge, I ordered a replacement battery for her as a gift. She says she now gets 5 hrs + per charge.

My mouse also only has a single eneloop battery. This single battery has never been taken out, or replaced since I bought mine back in early 2012. It has gone up to three days of heavy (*cough*Diablo/WoW/LoL*cough*) usage. It has died on me unexpectedly once, but I was able to just plug it in via the dis-connectable USB cable and didn't miss a beat.

Actually you can go check this: http://www.newbattery.us/acer-bt00304010-laptop-battery-replacement-p-47850.html if you need spare bat (i just replaced mine)

As an addendum to my previous answer: The original battery was heading south after three years of constant use. I purchased a couple of aftermarket batteries (a 9-cell and a 6-cell) on Amazon. Both have been fantastic. I keep the 9-cell mounted on the Aspire. If I place the power setting on "Power Saver", I can use the netbook for an entire weekend vacation with no recharge. I take several three- and four-day trips throughout the year. I rarely, if ever, take a charger or mouse. I place the netbook in a neoprene sleeve and have plenty of computing power for DAYS while adding almost no weight or volume to my travel bag.

Hi,I have been following the thread as I also would like to have a backup in case of power outage to plug in my PC or reading lights, a coffee maker :)The battery mentioned seems to be hard to get, do you have an alternative?

not sure if my earlier reply went thru: this item is available from at least 6 other online vendors. excaliberpc.com sells it for the same price as amazon, and has it in stock. http://www.excaliberpc.com/597586/asus-eee-pc-1215n-250gb.html#TabReviews

I owned one of these new from hp. my battery would last up to 4- 1/2 hours. But I followed the owners manual. And this is the best laptop that HP has made in a while. and If I had extra money I would buy myself another one.

The specs say it will work with the Seashell 1005P 1005PE 1005PEB 1005PEGOn Asus website the Eee PC 1005PE is designated as Seashell.So it should work for your model.

What they mean by "Nonstandard" is that you probably can't replace the battery. It's a lithium battery that is built in, so you can't simply go to the store and replace it. The battery is rated for 10 hours by Asus. That would probably translate to something like 8 hours for typical use. Results will vary depending how you are using it, brightness, wifi, GPS, etc.... Also the optional keyboard dock has a battery in it that will add another 5 hours of use to it. Probably more like 4 in real world use though. So there could be potentially be a total of 12 hours or so if you get the keyboard dock too.

It was supposed to ship with the 4400 battery right from the beginning but acer didn't have enough 4400mah batteries in stock which is why they decided to ship the first batches with the larger battery. That is what I have read, I will provide a link should I find the article, or just google it.Anyway, I also think that all aspire ones should come with the larger batt. a downgrade like that seems a little unfair.

mauri88, I don't use this computer so I can't give you an exact statement on battery life. However, I bought my daughter this 14" screen HP Envy with 8 gigs of ram. Upon receiving it I immediately removed the factory hard drive and installed a Toshiba 512 Gig SSD. My daughter uses her HP Envy for hours on the battery. I have never heard her complain about her Envy battery's charge running out. She really likes her 14" screen HP Envy.

I bought this laptop in June and it arrived with a bad battery. The non-Amazon supplier directed me to Acer customer service for a new battery. They were very helpful and got a battery to me in several days. The bigger issue occurred about a month later when I was traveling. A blue screen showed up and before I could read it the computer crashed. I have not been able to restart the computer and do a reset. I plan to return it to Acer when I return to the US. Perhaps a defective batch of computers. This netbook has been more trouble than it was worth and if I had it to do over, I would have put the money into something else.
