Smart batteries have internal circuit boards with smart chips which
allow them to communicate with the notebook and monitor battery
performance, output voltage and temperature.

Smart batteries will generally run 15% longer due to their increased
efficiency and also give the computer much more accurate "fuel gauge"
capabilities to determine how much battery running time is left before
the next recharge is required.
