it took awhile to get here but once it arrived my battery life has been rejuvenated. Seller was more than willing to work with me with the shipping delay. Communication was great with the supplier.

My biggest problem with rechargeable batteries for the many years I have been using them is that they normally loose charge at a fairly rapid rate while sitting waiting to be used. this new battery seems to solved this problem and the result is fantastic. i am satisfied with this result.

i have a sony laptop purchased in 2004. The battery recently died on it, and I decided to purchase a new one from this new foud shop instead of the sony store due to about a $50 cost savings.
The battery was brand new, came packaged in a very strong box, with the battery completely surrounded by custom foam to keep it safe.
Instructions were very easy, charge with computer off for 24 hours, then drain the battery completely, then charge fully again.
I have been getting about the same battery life as my original battery, I think it says 3.5 hours once fully charged and depending on usage (internet mostly) I get about 4.5 hours actual.
it is worthy.highly recommended.
