15" MBP Battery

[BioCore]

I was looking to purchase a new battery for my 15" MBP (late 2007 model). I was hoping to find a good deal other than Apple it self (as they charge $150 for a new battery). So what is the best place to purchase a MBP 15" battery online?

thanks.

I would never trust a battery that didn't come from Apple.

Sure? I guess you are right. Then a quick question, seeing as I do need a new battery. What is the best schedule for calibrating batteries on laptops, every month, twice a month?

OWC (macsales.com) has a good special on batteries right now for the 15" MBP.

60 bucks.

This should answer most, if not all, of your battery questions: Apple Notebook Battery FAQ

Thanks for the link. Just ordered one. Today, I went into the Apple Store genius Bar with three batteries and all were determined to be shot.

Did you get a chance to try out the battery from OWC? My battery just died and I'm considering ordering one. Wondering how good it is.

Thanks,
