    Recently I bought a used HP Elitebook 2530p and, of course being a 3-4 year old laptop, the battery that came with it is wearing out. I spent $250 on the laptop and really don't want to invest in another $120 for an OEM battery.

    I was doing some searching and found a lot of batteries (mostly shady ones from eBay), but I came upon this on amazon:

    Amazon.com: Bavvo Laptop Battery 6-cell compatible with HP EliteBook 2530p, Replacement for 404887-241,404888-241,411126-001,411127-001,412779-001: Computers & Accessories

    There store page:
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/browse.html?ie=UTF8&marketplaceID=ATVPDKIKX0DER&me=A2KMZ1OLI4CXPT

    has a lot of good reviews and the battery also comes with a 12 month warranty.

    What do people think? Should I take the risk?
