Stuff from Hong Kong, innit
I bought a cheap battery for my phone off ebay from Hong Kong, and it has done me very well. should I risk getting a laptop battery in the same manner, a genuine Dell one is well pricey and ting.
Anyone had any cheap battery problems

I've heard about dodgy Chinese power supplies,

My budgie has a little electronic companion, like a bird Realdoll.
If he taps her, the little battery inside makes her cheep cheep cheep.

He keeps falling off her back.

The fat Betterware lady and her retarded husband with their fat baby just rang my doorbell more times than was
necessary to get their Betterware catalogue back.
You shoved it through my door, tubby, you're gonna lose it. It went in the recycling box

Now fuck off, I'm watching Top Gear

No, i've got a fair few cheap flash cards from Hong Kong that work quite well,

Only trouble is, if it blows up, you're looking at a lot more to replace your laptop.
Plus you'll invalidate your warranty, I think.

i got a knock-off acer one
it was about 3/4 the capacity of the old one, but it served me pretty well otherwise
