    Hi everyone,

    I'm trying to track down an extra battery for my w3v laptop (the one that fits into the optical bay), but have not been successful. It seems that my local computer store can get the battery for the w3j, and I'm pretty sure that it would work, but I'm not sure. Anyone know for sure?

    Thanks!

    It's the same battery, infact, Asus hasn't made a dedicated W3j optical bay battery.... They were all made for the w3n/v/z. They work and the color is the same on the lower part of the chassis in all models.
