    Have had my m11xr2 for over two years now. Got the battery replaced in Nov '11 when it stopped holding charge. My replacement one is just over a year old now and I'm only getting ~2.5 hours of battery life with it. No gaming, alien FX, etc. 50,620 mWh capacity now, from a 64,540 mWh originally, according to BatteryBar. I remember getting around 4-5 new, so I'm looking for a replacement now. For those of you who have done this, where did you get it from and how was your experience?

    If you're gaming on discrete graphics with power options set to high performance the battery charge will last a lot less.

    If you want to get it from dell just send me a PM with your phone number and we'll take it from there.

    out of curiosity, how much damage to my wallet would a new battery for m11x r3 cost roughly? (I'm in UK, but I'm sure a lot of people would like to know to have an idea). As i would possibly like to get a new battery to get back to that 6ish hours of battery life once this one is really tired... Just to have an idea of the price?
