Can anyone recommend a quality 8-cell replacement battery for my 700m? At dell.com they run $135, which is so not worth it. I googled around a bit, but I couldn't tell if the non-dell batteries were reliable or not.

The battery on my Lattitude 8200 died on my last year. I bought a new non-dell battery on ebay and it has worked pretty good so far. I had searched around and the best deal with a 1 yr warranty was on ebay. I made sure I stuck to sellers with 10,000's+ of positive feedback.

YMMV.

I bought a replacement battery for my old Dell Inspiron 8100 from these guys. (http://www.priorityelectronics.com/product/dell/Inspiron/700m/All/1/) I was happy with service and quality. They show one for yours for $65.

I had some issues booting up my old Inpsiron 8200 when I tried using some aftermarket batteries. Seems the firmware in the batteries was doing something wrong. No problem getting a refund from the vendor, but it was a surprise to me that batteries are not “dumb”.
