Can someone point me in the direction of a reliable Laptop Replacement Battery supplier. I have an HP Pavilion Dv6-1216 which has a 509458-001 battery.

The battery is failing to charge and I need to find a supplier who can provide a battery by Monday next week (am travelling overseas on Tuesday and need it urgently).

Have spent some time browsing but come up with many companies that don't fill me with confidence (no addresses or telephone numbers). Any suggestions? Don't mind a non-original replacement as long as its a reputable supplier.

Thanks
Never let it get you down... unless it really is as bad as it seems.

    Yes, but difficulty to gauge the pedigree/reputation of some of the sellers - espcially since I'm after a 24day delivery. Would like to be able to phone to confirm that item in stock etc. before ordering

    At this late stage you need to find a shop local that bsells them. That is the only way to get one for Monday now

    Quite possibly - which is why I'm hunting around for a supplier that actually provides an address and phone number on their website. I need to find somewhere in the south of England - I'm travelling from Milton Keynes to Bath on business on Monday so if anybody knows of a supplier on that route it would be much appreciated.

    They have them on Amazon and they have an express delivery for tomorrow if you order now.

    Just search on the battery number

    ETA; You need to pick one that is fulfilled by Amazon to get the next day delivery
