Hi,

I've seen in many reviews that there is going to be an extended battery pack for Aspire S7 series. In Acer Aspire S7's users manual, it is mentioned as there is an extended battery pack for this ultrabook. But, I can't find it anywhere, not in Acer's online store nor in other retailer's we pages.  I use this computer at school and I need longer battery life. 

Well I think they shouldn't have been advertising it in the very beginning if they were not gonna produce it. 

Anyone know when or if Acer is going to sell it?

Cheers,

John

I have read that it is "planned" to be released at some point in time.  I have been wondering when for a month or two now, and there hasnt' been a peep.  My choice to buy the S7 over the Ideapad Yoga13 hinged almost completely on the fact that there would be an extended battery back at some point in time.  While I do love the S7, the weak keyboard and battery life are a concern.

Hopefully they release some information soon™, othwise if Lenovo puts out a new Yoga in 6 months, I have have to sell my Acer.

Funny that with the battery pack,acr has the longest battery life. Also i present battery back's compared to slice battery since it actually makes the laptop easier to type on.

I too am wondering this. 

Acer - WHERE IS THE EXTERNAL BATTERY FOR THE ACER S7-391?

That is the only reason I bought this laptop - in hopes that the external battery would help in countering the horrid battery life.

Good day

No extended battery for this machine. I havent heard anything about 1 being manufactured soon either nor will it be.

I've already seen photos of the battery for the S7-391, it must be imminent.  I just don't know if it will be sold separately.  There are already some photos on some european sites

As with the proper AC Adapter for the S7-391, I too am looking for the Extended Battery pack.  Seems like another indication the S7-391 was rushed to market before fully ready.  I love the machine, but disappointed that no accessories are ready and Wi-Fi is problematic.  For such a high end ultrabook, it should not be this way, Acer.
