    Hello folks,

    My Toshiba Satellite A505-S6005's (Part number - PSAT6U-005002) battery seems to be dying. I am getting a warning 'Consider replacing your battery'. Battery Care application is showing its capacity half of what it is designed for (Also, I do notice that it discharges in less than 2 hours and its a 12-cell battery)

    So I am curious if anyone has a recommendation of a store for after-market battery purchase. I do not want to buy from ebay for cheap and then end up replacing again in a year. At the same time, if possible, I do not want to spend more than $60.

    I have another laptop from Acer. I will be glad if someone can recommend me good quality after-market universal power supply so that I can use it for both of these machines.

    Many thanks in advance.
