HP Compaq NC8230 is one slim and lightweight, long warranty, optional TPM security, great keyboard and long battery life laptop. NC8230 comes with an 8-cell 69Wh laptop battery that offers impressive battery life. I ran two tests using Battery Eater Pro ’05. In Classic mode, when all power-saving options are disabled, the nc8230 gets approximately two-hours of battery life.
In Reader’s Test mode, when all power-saving options are fully enabled, ambient light sensor enabled, and Bluetooth and Wireless LAN enabled, the nc8230 gets 4 hours and 10 minutes of HP NC8230 Battery life. Additionally, the display was left on for the duration of the testing and ran a photo album screen saver through the majority of the test.
For those who are away from the office or home for an extended period of time, and don’t have access to a Business Notebook nc8230 AC Adapter source, the nc8230 should offer exceptional battery life with the appropriate power management settings.
