A cheap battery will give cheap results. About 2 years ago the battery in my Dell failed. I got an inexpensive replacement (Dell wanted ~$150, the inexpensive replacement was about $80) the replacement lasted about 9 months before it inexplicably failed completely. Ended up buying a full price replacement...

What about this for about half the price from Batteryedge? http://www.batteryedge.com/Apple_MacBook_Pro_15_Inch_Battery_A1175_p/apa1175.htm?gclid=CKSK4tW296oCFUJrKgod4Q06DA On Tue, Aug 30, 2011 at 11:25 AM, Allan Streib <str...@cs.indiana.edu>wrote: > If you want a genuine Apple battery you will probably need to buy it at > the Apple store.
