Replacing Dell Battery
« on: November 29, 2011, 04:28:06 AM »
After 3 years, time has come to replace battery on my Dell Inspiron 1525. :(

Dell wants $135, so a 'no go' there. Can anyone recommend an alternative?

I did find these:

www.amazon.com/dp/B003E2O3TU/?tag=cl03f-20

and

www.amazon.com/dp/B001KO6FZY/?tag=cl03f-20

Should I just go w/ one of these? Price does look right.

TIA

Is it really worth paying twice the price for something that is 'authentic dell'?

I've seen very good fakes when it comes to batteries.

@Eli can confirm this.
