Any recommended battery sellers on ebay or other for the T410?

[Houndz]

Anyone have a recommended 9 cell battery for the T410 seller from ebay? Or a different website

It can be generic or genuine, as long as its cheap (im a student ) and will last me a year or two.

In the past I have bought a few times from CBK: http://www.ebay.com/itm/302164239727
At that time they were US-made, nowadays they sell Chinese knock-offs, no idea how good or bad...

Instead check eBay with this: genuine lenovo (t410,t510) battery
and pick 6- or 9-cell.

The shipping brings it to the price of a genuine 9 cell from china. Im in Australia, hoping to find some cheaper ones.

I might just try my luck with a chinese seller.

If anyone else has some recommendations please post! Thanks for the help so far.

We have a T410 laptop, and from our experience we will stick with official Lenovo batteries going forward.

We once tried a 9-cell non-Lenovo battery (ie: not made by Lenovo), and it died quite quickly.

To add insult to injury, our original (older) 6-cell Lenovo battery was still working, long after our newer non-Lenovo (not made by Lenovo) 9-cell battery had long since died !
(The older 6-cell Lenovo battery was abused due to non-use; we left it permanently in a completely discharged state for months at a time).

Again, from our experience we will stick with official Lenovo batteries going forward.

[In case you are interested, our T410 is currently working on a newly bought Lenovo branded 6-cell battery].
