Portable power supply

180 points posted to New Product Ideas, Laptop Power by magiting May 5

Hi Mr. Michael Dell,

I would like to suggest if you can make another product line
which is a rechargeable 2.5 inch Li-Ion battery that is a plug-n-play design. I do not have doubts about the batteries that today's laptops have but each brand are making their own design. I wish a USB insert portable power supply would debut in the market sold by Dell which can have a battery power ranging from 2-5hours. This is especially good when in the mountains camping or making seminars in remote areas. It is a path towards standardized portable power supply for laptops.

Thanks,
magiting

May 15		 i think the best way to implement this idea would be to have an external ups built into the transformer brick. would make it a ton heavier and bigger but would probably do the trick
