I need a new battery for a Thinkpad T20.

I saw some really cheap on Ebay via Hong Kong but factoring in the postage and potential for arse-ache should it go missing/be incorrect/break I've decided to buy in the UK.

I don't want an Ebay sale so are there any online stores that do these cheap?

Try looking for Inov8 batteries on Amazon. It's the BL1002 you want I think.

~£30 inc P&P

mAh ratings vary a bit, not sure what the Amazon ones are but I think the Inov8 ones are usually 4400mAh so should last slightly longer than the one above.

Well done that man. If only PC companies offered your level of after-sales service. :)

Have you used one of these? I've been ignoring anything that's not an official IBM battery.

I went with Michael's suggestion. Thanks for the info though, Chris.
