    Hey guys, i´ve an asus g50vt x5 and my 9 cells battery works really fine, i use the notebook plugged in almost all te time, but i´m looking for a 6 celds battery just like the g50vt x1 battery, because it´s smaller and more comfortable to fit in my backpack.
    Did you know about any place in the USA that sales this battery?
    I will appreciate any link to the market page, i was looking in bestbuy and tigerdirect but i have found nothing.
    Thanks for your answer and sorry for my awful english

    Gusy i found this 2 options on eBay, the only difference between 2 batteries is the capacity, 4400 mAh and 4800 mAh.
    4400mAh battery
    4800 mAh battery

    Is the 400 mAh difference very important between this 2 batteries?
    Thanks for your answers!

    I'm not sure where you got the first link from but the proper batteries from North America:

    eBay Search

    Technically, 4800 is almost 10% higher capacity and battery life. As with any aftermarket battery, the ratings may be valid and they may be bogus. The 4800 is stock but who knows what is true from China, or even the web for that matter. Straight from Asus would be ideal but I'm sure either battery would work for your needs. The 4800mah China one may just be the same 4400 but with a stock-type rating stick to the battery.

    Then the basic difference will be only the price, which is not very different either. I will go with the 4800mah i think.
    Thanks for your answer!

    do you want to trade your 9 cell for a (preowned) 6 cell? I'll throw in some cash too if you'd like.
