    I received the 7200 mAh battery for my F3JP to replace my failing 4800 mAh stocker for Christmas, and let me say it's AWESOME.

    Santa bought the battery for me off eBay for $70 shipped ( http://search.ebay.com/search/searc...atitle=genuine+7200ah+battery+asus&category0=) and it took about a week to arrive from China.

    I went from getting 2 hours 0 minutes max out of the battery new, to about 25 minutes max recently, to close to 6 hours with wireless off and the screen at min brightness. The battery sticks out slightly in the back now, but weight increase isn't noticeable at all. If you use your F series Asus notebook in mobile situations, this thing is a must. Wish I got it a long time ago.
