8 QuickerTek announces the MacBook External Battery/Charger for the Apple 15-inch MacBook Pro and MacBook laptops. This product either charges or powers MacBooks with up to 10 additional hours of computing power. It's available from QuickerTek and its dealers for $449.95 USD.

"We built MagSafe compatibility into this poduct", said Rick Estes, president, QuickerTek, Inc. "We use the regular MagSafe connectors coming out from the Battery/Charger, so you don't hacve to do anything different," he continued.

This product is an logical extension of Quickertek's first MacBook Air External Battery/Charger, and gives MacBook Pro users far more flexibility in how and when they choose to use their laptops. With up to 10 extra hours of battery power - beyond the battery life of the built-in battery - users can plan for longer airline flights, more time outdoors and plenty of time for several leasurely cups at the coffee shop.

Quickertek claims that a total of 8 to 10 total hours of MacBook Pro use are easily available when using the External Battery/Charger. Users can easily monitor how the external battery is working by checking the battery charge indicator in the menu bar, which stays at 100% for hours, before the internal battery is used.

While the stock MacBook Pro recharges in five hours using the AC wall adapter, the MacBook Pro External Battery/Charger recharges in only three hours. Styled to blend with your Apple equipment, the MacBook Pro External Battery/Charger is aesthetically attractive, and being both compact and lightweight it's ideal for traveling.
