Generally goto ebay, look for a seller with the best track record offering the best warranty from the UK- don't go for the cheapest.
for example: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Acer-eMachines-D525-G627-G630-G725-E630-E627-D725-E430-E525-E527-Battery-AS09A70-/170809184670?pt=UK_Computing_LaptopsAccessories_LaptopBatteries&hash=item27c505519e0 -
In addition to Rob's comment, as a rule of thumb, look for one which costs about 40% of a manufacturer's own.
It's likely to have come off one of the same production lines (manufacture is all contracted out so any two "real" batteries are likely to be different anyway).
Even if it only gives half the life of a new original, you'll still be 20% up after exhausting two.I'm dreaming of a white Christmas.
But, if the white runs out, I'll drink the red.0 -
I buy all mine from powercell_uk on Ebay. They're based in Nottingham and I've picked up from them in the past.0
