    I use my laptop a lot while travelling and one of the problems I face is low battery.

    What are the best remedies for this if you don't have access to electricity?

    Is it possible to get a battery pack of some sort that I could plug my laptop into that would last up to 10-12 hours.

    It doesn't make any sense to me to buy a battery pack.

    What I would do is buy a second battery for your model of laptop.

    I don't think it's a big deal to swap out the battery from your laptop to charge them up.

    A battery is a 'battery pack' after all.

    I think I may of totally overlooked the obvious but ya that sounds like the ideal thing to do!

    It would mean you would have to shut down your laptop each time you do a swap though. With a battery pack you wouldn't need to do this.
