H,

I have a long haul o'seas air trip ahead of 20 hours and need my notebook for
work on board.

My battery which is near new will only give me up to 2 hours. What does one
normally do when this is the case? Can one plug it in in economy class?

Or does one have to buy another spare battery?

Thanks

Call the airline and see if your flight has 110v power at your seat. If not
you'll need 10 batteries

Which TSA will not let you carry on the plane.

Yes I'll do that. I'm sure they wouldn't let me on with all of them!! Not
after 911.

I hope they have the power tho. I am on Singapore Airlines on one long haul
and United on the other.

That should raise an eyebrow or two at airport security.
