    I put this thread in the Laptop section but that place seems very quiet.

    Hi folks, my Acer Aspire 5750 is 3 years old and the battery has given up the ghost.

    I went in to PC World and they don't sell batteries. The Laptop works fine and I don't want a new one foe now.

    Are there any retail outlets, big or small, in Dublin that might sell one to me?

    Thanks in advance.

    €40 on http://www.laptopbatteries.ie/ plus €8 delivery (which is generally next day - i've used them three times at this stage).

    Got one at Syncron in Rosemount Industrial Estate for 16 quid. Charged up nicely and is powering my laptop up fine so far. :)

    That's a little bit too cheap for my liking. With laptop batteries you get what you pay for.

    Just saying.

    Except your house, don't leave it plugged in and unattended would be my advice.
