need to replace battery for T41 - any recommendations?

#1 Post by codish » Thu Feb 09, 2006 3:27 pm

Can anyone recommend a reliable inexpensive vendor? Regular googling yields prices ranging from $70-170!

I bought a battery from one vendors three months ago only to get a battery that would not charge...

Also: any thoughts of 6-cells vs. 9-cells? mainly, how unyieldy does the computer become with the 9 cell battery?

THANKS!

If the machine is less than a year old, you can get it replaced under waranty

As far as the 9cell vs 6cell (size) it all depends on your preference; some people here do not like the extra bulge; I personaly like it, considering I can run the t41 for two nights in a row without charging (school work, on the couch).

If you are looking for a good deal on a 9-cell, check out this auction

Keep in mind, this is the latest 9-cell 7.2mah! plus they are OEM

The same guy has 6 cells, just bought one for $55 shipped. I bought the 9 cell from him as well, and enjoy over 5 hours on my 14" T42p.
