I've found the correct replacement battery for the laptop but some are £16 and some are £30.

The ones I'm looking at are 4400 mAh and 6 cell, which is what i need.



My question is do i need to buy the expensive one or will the cheaper one do the job?

(This is for my sons laptop and he never takes it out of the house.)

    Just look for a reputable seller. The price difference is amazing; Dell will charge £60 for a battery, but a Chinese exported version will cost £15.
