    I was looking for a 9-Cell battery for my S96S and ran across this one:

    The S96S takes the standard S96 battery, so for all intents and purposes this one should work fine. The only thing that bothers me is how much cheaper this is than the extra battery options which most companies offer (usually $110). Is this some kind of cheapo version of a 9-cell, or is it the real deal?

    Hmm, so perhaps this is worth buying? If nobody has a conclusive answer then I will probably just take the plunge and let everyone know what happens.
