    Hi! I've been searching a bit for this info and wasn't able to find it - I just got a G1 laptop from ncix, but they dont seem to sell a spare battery for it. I was wondering where I could get one (I live in Canada) and if anyone is in the know as to the answer of the question.
    I'd also read that the g1 is based on the A6 chassis? Does that mean an asus a6 battery would work as a replacement? IF this is the case, does anyone know the model number of this battery?
    Thanks in advance!

    I tried the Z92T battery on G1 and it worked:

    G1's battery actually has a A6 sticker on it just like Z92KM:

    So I put the Z92T battery on G1 and it fits:

    I was able to power up G1 with the Z92T battery, I plug in the AC adapter and the orange charging light turned on and it starts to charging the battery:
