In a couple of weeks I'll be on a very long overseas flight. I have a Lenovo Ideapad S10-3, and I should be able to get about 6 hours out of the battery. My flight is more than 12 hours long, and it doesn't look like my coach seat has a power port. I could buy and bring a spare battery but would like to avoid that if possible.<p>What can I do to keep from spending more than half of my flight with a dead netbook? Thanks much.
Some airlines have car-lighter sockets under the seats. Some have wall-plugs on the back of the seat in front of you. Things improve on new birds. But yeah, have multiple batteries if you gotta run it for a while. But have the plugs and the air/car charger just in case - although the plane might be 15V vs. 12V for the car.<p>You might be able to go to your airlines website and look at the inflight entertainment or technology entries (and the seat maps for the specific models/planes) to see what's what.
