Where can I get a battery for a Viglen Dossier GS laptop?

Have just bought a second hand one which has a charger but no battery. Does anyone know where I could buy a replacement battery? Thanks.

Any of these the right part?

I should add that I know nothing about the company and have never bought anything from them and... despite the .co.uk domain name, I'd guess they will probably be shipping directly from China and will have no stock actually in the UK.

Thanks. I only paid £40 for the laptop so think I will just run it off the power adaptor!

Most retailers including Viglen don't manufacture their own laptops. There are less than ten laptop manufacturers in the world, most of them in Asia. As such, the machine will be a rebadge. If you can find some identifying serial or model number either on the machine or, even better, on the battery, you will find that the battery is used in numerous different laptops from a variety of "manufacturers".
