Changing build in battery

[WoShiXiaoMing]

My dell vostro 5460 laptop seems to have a battery problem, adapter is plugged in but it keep on showing 0%,not charging/ battery not detected.

Called dell and I was quoted $120 for a battery with 90days warranty. Was wondering if I want to change the battery at computer shop, how much would it be(estimate) and is there any recommended shop for me to go to

$120 is a fair price for Laptop batteries.

You can try call or email to http://battery.com.sg/ and check their price.

Other than that, you'll have to open the battery and change the cells inside yourself... that is the cheapest way.

Go taobao. Ship over using sea shipping. Cheapest way by far. But u wait 2-3 weeks

$120 for battery with installation? - that's a pretty good deal for an original battery. Do check if that includes any service charges.

SLS would be cheaper. But it's not original.

Skimmed through a vid. It's relatively simple to replace.
