Yes, the PowerBook 5300 and 190 expansion bay (where the floppy disk drive normally is) can accept a battery. BTI (800-982-8284) was planning to release such a battery. Since the expansion bay does not pass AC power through, any battery used through the expansion bay will require its own power supply for charging.
