I got some good advice on this forum concerning cables, so I thought I'd try batteries.
I have an older Dell laptop that needs a new battery.
Dell's website has replacements for $136. They are listed as 6 cell, 53 watt-hour.
eBay has "buy it now" sellers listing "new" batteries, 6 cell, 52 watt-hour, for my Dell model, for $15.
The price differential is ridiculous, but I found the same differential on cables and had no problems with the cheap variety.
So, any thoughts on cheap batteries?
