HP today announced the launch of its new ‘HP EliteBook 6930p’ with an ultra-capacity battery delivered up to 24 hours of battery runtime.
In addition to helping achieve outstanding battery life, new Intel SSDs provide greater durability and reliability as well as faster system responsiveness. Internal HP benchmarks show overall performance boosts of up to 57 percent on industry benchmarks, and data transfer rates almost six times faster than traditional hard disks.
The initial ENERGY STAR-qualified HP EliteBook 6930p configuration starts at only 4.7 pounds(2.1 kilograms). It features a 14.1-inch diagonal widescreen display and is available with an optional, mercury-free Illumi-Lite LED display.
The HP EliteBook 6930p is built for the corporate road warrior as it features a shock-resistant hard drive, enhanced display panel and spill-resistant keyboard to help defend data against bumps, drops and spills. It was designed to meet the tough MIL-STD 810F military-standard tests that measure levels of environmental reliability and operation at extreme temperatures, while withstanding vibration and high humidity.

The 12-cell battery covers most of the base, so it cannot be placed on a dock while this battery is attached. However, this battery has its own power jack, so it can be charged seperately. It’s pretty cool, but it’s heavy. Gives you 18 cells total. With this setup, the laptop will go for a long time – depends on what you’re doing and how bright you set the screen.
