    £90 was based on an original battery purchased from acer direct.

    The reason acer would want both the netbook and the battery is to see if the netbook has caused the issue with the battery.

    If they just send you a new battery the netbook might destroy that too.

    If you do send it back don't forget to save all the info off of it, incase they reset it.

    A friend had the exact same problem and tried it with mine and it did the same thing so it was the battery.

    He contacted asda who told him they no longer had any in stock and could not get them in. He then contacted acer and told them. They said that the battery is covered by warrenty for the first 3 months and they sent out a new battery to him when it arrived the delivery service took the faulty one back to acer. All working fine now.
    Things that are free in life are great, well most of the time :beer:
