Bier Meister Posted July 15, 2007 Author Share Posted July 15, 2007 what makes some better than others? what specs am i looking for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 what makes some better than others? what specs am i looking for? They're all pretty much the same I think. I just replaced my Dell laptop's battery. Just make sure it's the right one. There is one that lasts longer than the other... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bier Meister Posted July 15, 2007 Author Share Posted July 15, 2007 is it primarily the higher the better for cells, mah, amp, and volts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H8tank Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 They're all pretty much the same I think Oh hell no! Are rayovacs the same as Duracell? www.apc.com has excellent aftermarket batteries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bier Meister Posted July 15, 2007 Author Share Posted July 15, 2007 Oh hell no! Are rayovacs the same as Duracell? www.apc.com has excellent aftermarket batteries. thanks. in trying to find the correct product for my comp... they didn't have my comp as an option.

Bier Meister Posted July 15, 2007 Author Share Posted July 15, 2007 also, something i am finding strange is that in doing research on a particular battery, different sites have different specs on it (ie: different amp and mah values).....

broncosn05 Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Take a look at ebay. Watch shipping though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H8tank Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Stay away from ebay unless you know exactly what you need. Regular aftermarket batteries will run $75-100 new. HIgher end after markets can run $200. What is the model number on the battery? And/or and mfg part numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bier Meister Posted July 15, 2007 Author Share Posted July 15, 2007 i am looking at the g5266 and c5974. i have held back because of diff info about each battery... ie: when researching the g5266, different sites have diff specs for it.... so not sure which battery is better between the two because i don't know what makes them different from each other.

H8tank Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 http://www.brilliantshopper.com/products/d...0622,MD-0/T1565 A few to choose from, if you can get a DELL oem NEW battery for under $100, that is a good deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Cid Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 The only thinng to know about dell batteries to to buy the one that doesn't burst into flames. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bier Meister Posted July 19, 2007 Author Share Posted July 19, 2007 so..... for the same batteries, each company had different specs for it.... just went for one with better specs. thanks H8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
