    Hey everyone, im new here and new to the laptop world in general!
    I just bought an Acer Aspire 7740 - 6498 laptop. Core i5, 4GB Ram, 17" screen. I love the laptop but not the 2 hour battery life. It came with an AS07B31 battery (10.8volt).

    I have no idea on laptop batteries so i was wondering if someone could help me. Im interested in upgrading my battery to something that will last longer. Im afraid of doing it completely by myself and getting the wrong one which in turn doesnt work or even worse, hurts my computer. If someone could please point me in the right direction id greatly appreciate it! so far i found this
