Replacement Battery

#1 Post by Merc » Sat Mar 29, 2008 10:28 pm

Now that I have upgraded my R61e I want to get a bigger battery. The T7300 CPU is a little hungrier than the 540 CPU so a 7200MAh 9 cell looks good. Does anyone know of a secondary source to buy from that has quality batteries at reasonable prices? TIA

I just got a new nine cell for my R60. A little under $100 was the cheapest I could find on Pricegrabber/eBay for batteries that looked like genuine Lenovo made batteries.

60's and 61's use the same battery from what I have found. I found this one for $85 http://tinyurl.com/2hx327 but the low price scares me. :lol:
