Laptop and notebook users can say goodbye to the usual plug or recharge batteries one at a time concept. Thanks to Datamation Systems, a new multi-bay battery charger can now re-charge 16 laptop batteries at a time. Batteries used for laptops and tablets no longer have to worry about recharging issues. Spare batteries can be charged even while they are being used simultaneously.

Among the laptops and notebooks that have been designed specially modeled multi-bay chargers include that of the Dell Latitude 2100 and the Lenovo IdeaPad S9/S10.

“Classroom users cannot afford to have students run out of power during the day,” said Joe Mazza, Datamation Systems Vice President. “Extra batteries, charged and ready, let teachers and students count on uninterrupted use, especially in a wireless environment.”

With that said, say goodbye to the worries of laptops needing to be plugged in to recharge or worry about laptop use limitations. Spare batteries can be recharged while you are using another one for the meantime, a definite plus for people who use laptops and tablets heavily for education or even business.
