We all know that any netbook’s, or any laptop for that matter, success depends heavily on how many hours of usage the can provide us. The Eee PC netbook series for one have been time and again trying to upgrade their battery power to provide as much usage time as possible. Last we heard, some Eee PC’s have around 4-5 hours of good usage with the 6-cell batteries.

But the standard battery that Asus supplies their EeePC are not are only options. In fact that’s the beauty of the Eee PC netbooks – they give us the freedom to modify as much hardware as possible with our units. For Eee PC  users, an 8-cell battery is currently available at eBay. This 8-cell battery can provide 8 solid hours of use and it costs $88 plus shipping cost of around $14.99 at eBay.

The said 8-cell battery was said to be compatible with the following Eee PC models:

• Asus EeePC 901 Series
• EeePC 901 12G
• EeePC 901 20G
• EeePC 901-W001
• EeePC 901-BK002X
• EeePC 901-W001
• EeePC 901-W003X
• EeePC 901-BK002XAsus EeePC 1000 Series
• EeePC 1000
• EeePC 1000-BK003
• Asus EeePC 1000H Series
• EeePC 1000H
• EeePC 1000H 20GB
• EeePC 1000H 80GB

But of course as this is a third-party Eee PC accessory, care and caution must be observed when dealing with these kind of products.
