My MBP is about a year old. The battery is not that bad. My issue is that I take long bus trips for school and would like to use my computer for the duration. Is there a third party battery that I could buy with better battery life? Or should I just buy another Apple OEM battery and use two throughout the trip? Any options for me?
Thanks for the help.

I would suggest that you buy a replacement and call it a day. As I don't think they make High-Capacity Lithium-Ion Replacement Battery for the MBP yet. Also have you updated your battery to 1.2. Here is the link
