* PEG-NX60, NX70VL, PEG-NV and PEG-NR70 series

* PEG-N610C, PEG-N710C and PEG-N760C series

With the following still as "coming soon":

* PEG-SL10, SJ-20 and PEG-SJ30 series

* PEG-T665, and PEG-T665C, Clie 65 and PEG-T615C/S series

Anybody want to try one and let us know how it works out?

Are these suppodsed to be better than orginal ones?

[merle]

No. I believe they are supposed to be same as the existing batteries. They are meant as replacement for batteries that can no longer hold a charge.

Lithium batteries, even though they don't suffer the memory effect, supposedly only have a maximum life span of 2 years or so, even if they are not charged and discharged that often. After that, they have trouble holding a charge. I haven't experience any drastic change with mine, yet, but it's only been about a little more than a year. I would like a replacement option, however.

Hmmm...still no TG50

[williepalm]

But the TG50 is still new. Why would you want to replace the battery now?

[wilsonch_98]

i know i know....

i was asking *just in case* :)

[williepalm]

By the time the TG50 needs replacement batteries, cliebattery dot com or some other companies will definitely come up with one. :)

[wilsonch_98]

I thought you are going to say they would be out of biz.....

Are they REALLY selling SL10 batteries???

It's the first place I've seen selling AAA batterries...:D


Now seriously... As far as I know, there's no way you can use these batteries with an SL10... They should delete it...
