iBook Replacement Battery?

[earthside]

Well, the battery on my 12 inch, iBook G4 is starting to finally give up the ghost.

I sure would appreciate any recommendations on a replacement.

I saw two or three different brands listed at Amazon ... but they all look pretty much the same to me and run from about a $100 to $140.

1. You can also try a big Mac retailer like MacMall.com or places that specialize in

Macintosh like Other World Computing (http://eshop.macsales.com/) or smalldog.com (they are a sponsor of the Thom Hartmann Show).

2. Excellent recommendations

I've had great luck with both of these companies in the past. There is also Headgap in Memphis, Tennessee. They have sold me a few small items, but they treat you as if you were buying a big ticket item. Their little 3.6V batteries they sell for older iMacs last for years, while the one I purchased at Radio Shack for twice the price lasted 3 months.

3. We HIGHLY recommend the batteries from these two vendors:

Other World Computing (http://www.macsales.com/) and Laptops for Less (http://www.laptopsforless.com/)

We replaced our iBook batteries (2001 iBook 500 MHz models) with other world models in 2005 and we replaced our Powerbook batteries (2003 models) with LfL's in 2006. Both have excellent quality.
