Need to replace MacBook Pro (2007) battery - cheaper options?

potlatch · 2009-10-29 10:59:23

I need to replace my MacBook Pro 15" battery (bought in 2007). It's pricey. Is there any cheaper way to replace it? Or am I stuck with buying an over-priced Apple battery?

I bought a refurbished battery for my 2007 white macbook from www.apple4less.eu a couple of months back; it was a genuine apple battery and advertised as having fewer than 20 charge cycles and was half the price of the brand new replacement from Apple - arrived quickly from Cork and had only one charge cycle. Had a look and they are selling Macbook Pro batteries today (No connection - just a happy customer!).

You can't go wrong with Apple4Less - they're great to deal with and if you can't find what you're looking for on the site give them a call. They have sourced stuff for people I know in the past.
