    Is there any way to charge an XPS battery without it being plugged into the laptop? Something along the lines of a standalone charger?

    I can provide you a custom-made one. It will charge your Dell XPS M1330 Batteries - 4, 6 or 9 Cell, one at a time using AC Power Source. The form factor is that of a sleek pad and can be used like a Notebook Cooler when not charging batteries. It can also store your Extra Battery when not charging and also during use as Notebook Cooler.

    Main Features:
    *Notebook Cooler via USB 2.0 Port
    *Extra Battery Storer (one 4, 6 or 9 Cell Battery)
    *External Battery Charger via 100-250 VAC, 50-60Hz, 5-6A Power Source

    I'll also throw in a Free Battery Compartment Cover, so you can use your notebook on AC power without battery while keeping your battery compartment closed.

    PM me for price and delivery options.

    PS: Currently, I can only provide for Dell XPS M1330 and not any other Dell or other notebooks. Also delivery in US Contiguous States only. Do not PM me unecessarily on this!

    What kind of joke is this? How can an UPS charge an XPS battery externally?
