    So I have an Acer E5 575 52JF with the original 4 cell battery, and there is a different model of the same laptop series with a 6 cell battery. If I buy the larger battery on ebay and put it in my laptop, will this work? Going by the model 52JF teardown pictures, the laptop has the space and connectors for it. It seems like an easy swap and something people have done for years with external batteries. I just wanted to make sure this was okay before proceeding.

    It should fit - look at the photo of the battery in this review.
