    I am looking for an OEM replacement battery for my lenovo R61 7732 laptop. Currently I have a 4 cell battery FRU 42T4552 with the following specs 14.4V , 2.6AH. I would like to go for a higher cell/capacity battery. I have checked many websties but can't find one with the same specs. They have batteries with 10.8V. Will these batteries be compatible with my laptop?

    The 4 cell batteries are 14.4V while the larger ones are lower voltage (for instance, the 4 cell for my x201 is 14.4V, while the 9 cell is 11.1V). I have no idea why there are differences, but then as far as I'm concerned electricity is magic, so I'm the wrong person to go to for an explanation.
