Dell Inspiron 1525 battery doesn't work

We've had the Dell Inspiron 1525 for a good couple of years, but now the battery is completely duff; it doesn't charge and doesn't work.

I suppose I could go to Dell and pay them lots for a new batery, but what are the alternatives?

(At the moment we're using the cheapest alternative, which is to use the machine without the battery in!)

Looks as if you can get them for £30 or less via eBay

Thanks.
Yes, I wonder if they are any good?
(Not that the original was particularly great anyway!)

Just find a seller with excellent feedback. I have bought a battery from a Chinese seller. It seems fine. 12 cell for £37.

OK - thanks!
