    Hi everyone,
    First I'd like to say that I am a very big noob when it comes to electronics, I can easily perform a craniotomy but I have no idea what a Watt stands for.
    Well, I bought an Asus K50AB some time ago and the battery life is about 2 hours but I need more, So I was thinking of buying an external battery but I don't know which of them will work with my computer.
    My laptop's power specifications are the following:
    Battery Pack & Life 6 cells: 2200 mAh
    AC Adapter Output: 19 V DC, 3.42 A, 90W
    Input: 100-240 V AC, 50/60 Hz universal
    This is what the Asus official website says but instead of 3.42A the panel on my AC adapter says 4.74A.

    There isn't a big choice of batteries in my country but I will give you the specs for the ones that I could find:

    Prestigio Power Bank 501

    16V/4.5A

    21V/3.5A

    I am a bit confused because none of this batteries seem to have the same number of Watts or Amps as my laptops AC adapter.
    Please tell me which of these batteries can I use for my laptop...
    Please help, you are my only hope...
