Hold on, the battery's another thing I had to replace. Let me find how much I paid.
Edit: I paid a little less than $50 on eBay from ebl. They're a reputable seller, I bought rechargeable AAA's from them more than five years ago and they're still kicking
I have a ton of EBL batteries. And my reality was confirmed when Project Farm did a "one year later" follow-up, which confirmed what I was experiencing: EBL batteries are garbage. LOL
I haven't done any real tests so I guess I'll defer to you on that. It's been more than three years of daily use since installing the laptop battery though, so I'd say the fact that I haven't noticed a significant drop in battery life means that $50 is no less then a fair price.
Ok I just looked up oem, damn I'm cheap lol: https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell-6-cell-97-wh-lithium-ion-replacement-battery-for-select-laptops/apd/gpm03/pc-accessories
