Macbook Battery: HyperMac External Battery Hands-On

Despite having at their disposal one of the longest battery life in the laptop world (under Mac OS), Macbook Pro owners don’t have the option of changing battery as they go. We’ve tried HyperMac, an external battery that acts as an external power source. When connected, your Macbook thinks that it is connected to a power adapter. If the Macbook is turned off, you can charge it with HyperMac. There’s also a USB port (recently upgraded to work with the iPad) to charge various gadgets, including phones, but everything goes, really. I took it on a few trips, and if you can’t afford being out of juice, HyperMac is an awesome resource to have. There are different versions ranging from 60 to 222Wh, and of course the weigh varies proportionally to the capacity.
