    Hey,

    Will this battery work in Acer D270?

    Thinking of buying this battery:

    Its a 6 cell battery. Normally 6 cell battery for acer d270 netbook is suppose to be 4400mah, but this one is 5200mah which is suppose to be extended battery

    6Cell New Battery for Acer Aspire One D270 D260 D255 D255E AO722 AL10A31 AL10G31 | eBay

    Can someone please confirm if this will be better than the 4400mah? Will the battery work perfectly, or will it be low quality?

    Thanks.

    What's the voltage of a standard 4400mAh battery?

    In that case (with identical/similar voltage) the new one would have roughly 20% more capacity than the original one (when it was new).

    My only worry would be that it seems to be too cheap- it probably should cost twice what it does and still would be considered cheap.
    While that doesn't mean it's low quality it sort of makes it too good to be true.
