Battery suggestions por la Sager NP5660

On the Sager NP5660, would it be better to get the dual bay batteries (primary+second bay battery)(about 2.5 hrs), or get a spare primary battery (about 3 hrs). you gotta switch out the primary battery for the spare at 1.5 hrs....but...i dunno...i dont even know how much/how im going to use it unplugged. with the dual battery option, i dont have to switch out the batteries afterwards. any suggestions?

seems to me that if you don't know how much you will use it unplugged, you're not very likely to use the 'portable mode' very much, ie. you will access to AC power most of the time.

i would forego the dual-bay getup and even for the time being, the second spare battery (unless you get some sort of discount doing this now).

btw, a run-time of only ~1.5 hours per battery is not very good, imo.

I was thinking about the same thing lastevolution, and I think that the primary battery plus the secondary battery in the optical drive would be best, because you don't have to interupt what you are doing at that moment, for example if you wanted to watch through an entire dvd movie.
