Would you be upset with 23 hour "life"?

I wonder if a life span of 23 hours is possible. Then you replace that battery for a new one. I remember such tech many years ago but it was reserved for very specific applications.

If you want 23 hour run time from a laptop, you may do that by adding those external battery packs.

So far just two groups.

I see the 300 cycle units and the 1000 cycle units. The 1000 cycle units have the much better life span.
