Good Replacement laptop batteries

DaltonLang · September 8, 2017

So I'm new to the forums, and I'm not sure if this is the right section to post in about this. If it's not if you could let me know where the best place to post this is. But here is the issue my laptop battery died. The computer is an "Alienware 15" not sure if it's is an R1 or R2. Now it only works on the charger, and Dell Customer support informed me they no longer carry my laptops battery :(. So I have found a few 3rd party ones on Amazon but I am not sure as what one to purchase, as not all batteries are created equal. Battery type is a Dell 191YN. Any help would be much appreciated. Please let me know if you need any further information.

Looks to me like they all all clones from the Chinese company that made the originals. Just with bunch of different packages and sellers to make it look like you have selection. At least product pics are same across all.

Yeah that's what I thought as well. I just didn't wanna buy a cheap bad battery and have it die right away, because I have to strip my laptop clean to change the battery.

Get original batteries from Alienware directly from Alienware or Dell

Welcome to the forum! This is the perfect place for this kind of stuff. I just bought a new battery for my sister's macbook and I noticed that some of the batteries being sold had fewer watt hours than the original battery that came from the manufacturer, make sure you get one with the right watt hours to get the maximum battery life possible. Also check the reviews, make sure that you get one with a decent number of good reviews. Also, be sure the seller backs it up with a good warranty. Hope I could help.
