NewerTech Introduces NuPower High Capacity Replacement Battery For 2008/2009 15″ Apple MacBook Pro ‘Unibody’ Computers

| Posted on |

Probably my unfavorite feature of the unibody MacBook Pros and MacBooks (as well as MacBook Airs) is their non-swappable battery. I don’t say non-replacable, because iFixIt teardown reports have revealed that a DIY battery replacement would not be beyond the bounds of practical possibility for the handy with tools, but it was something of a moot point with no replacement batteries available from any source but Apple.

However, that’s now been addressed, at least for the 2008/09 unibody 15″ MacBook Pro models with Newer Technology, Inc.’a (NewerTech – http://www.newertech.com ) annouincement of its NuPower 52 Watt-Hour High Capacity Replacement Battery for Late 2008/Early 2009 15″ Apple MacBook Pro Unibody notebook computers, that offers up to 4% greater capacity over the factory original battery for longer runtimes. With a $99.00 MSRP, the NuPower 52 Watt-Hour battery offers a 23% lower cost than the replacement battery available from Apple.

The NewerTech NuPower 52 Watt-Hour High Capacity Replacement Battery is available immediately at $99.00 MSRP from NewerTech’s exclusive distributor, Other World Computing (OWC), as well as through the retail channel. For more information on this NuPower Battery, visit:

A One Year NewerTech Warranty is included with all NuPower replacement batteries. For more information on the complete NuPower battery line for Apple notebook computers, visit:
