Welcome to a laptop battery specialist of the Hp laptop battery
HP has made a unique little product that is getting quite a bit of buzz today—the Compaq AirLife 100 smartbook. Yes, that’s right, a “smartbook.” The smartbook is basically the combination of a netbook and a smartphone—and this Compaq product fits the perfect depiction. The AirLife 100 smartbook features a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, 3G wireless built-in, Wi-Fi and an Android OS, but in netbook form.
CNET reports the AirLife 100 also sports a resistive 10.1-inch touch-screen, 1,024×600-pixel resolution TFT display, 16GB of solid state internal storage, an SD card slot, 12 hours of battery like HP HSTNN-LB11 Battery

life or 10 days of standby. HP decided the best way to define a smartbook would be to make one and stuff a smartphone’s innards into a netbook shell. And you know what—we kind of like it.
Prices for this little hybrid notebook has not been reveal, but we hope it doesn’t cost more than a netbook.
Part of use is abuse, which means HP actually accommodates for much more than a trip to the office and back in padded briefcase every day.
Down a labyrinthine hall, James Woods handles the goriest bits of notebook testing in a lab that seems almost hidden intentionally from the rest of the building, as if to shield engineers from the brutal abuse of the products they painstakingly design. An imposing figure with a graying goatee, Texas drawl and heavy work boots that contrast with the loafers scampering around the rest of the building, Woods has the demeanor of a shop teacher gone mad, maniacally focused on destroying notebooks.
First up, a good old-fashioned drop test. Woods places a notebook on two fork-lift-like prongs 30 inches above a sheet of plywood. With the press of a button, they swoop out from under it, leaving it clattering to the ground. It still boots up – this time – but it’s just the beginning. All told, Woods will put a single notebook through the mini Tower of Terror ride 26 times to test different angles before declaring it fit.
Nearby, a table jolts up and down furiously with a packaged laptop strapped helplessly to the top. It’s an electromechanical machine – literally a giant speaker diaphragm — generating not room-rattling bass but brutal vibration. All the shaking emulates the abuse a package would receive on a cross-country ride in a semi truck. As engineers continually whittle down packaging to save on both costs and improve environmental footprints, the new designs get strapped to Woods’ torture tester to make sure they haven’t removed one chunk of cardboard too many.
As multiple bootprints on one test notebook illustrate, it takes more than a 300-pound man to defeat the magnesium-reinforced skeleton engineers have concocted for the EliteBook. All that footprint actually spreads out the weight nicely. Things get medieval in a larger room, where an industrial press acts like a supsersized vice, crushing down on the lid of a closed laptop with a small stamper. Woods admits this isn’t the machine they actually use. With 25,000 pounds of force on tap – the maximum capacity on many commercial elevators — it’s overkill. But fun to watch. With the notebook in place, the stamper slowly lowers onto the lid and begins delivering pressure. At first, nothing happens. At about 30 pounds, it begins to deform. At 190, a pop signals the destruction of something, but on removal, the LCD is still intact.
