Denis,

  I've purchased a couple of replacement laptop batteries on eBay selecting
the lowest price and they're all still working very well. I'll choose a
9-cell over a 6- or 4-cell (the latter is apparently the default for the
ThinkPad X200) and compare the stated outputs (in Ahr or mAhr). Sometimes
the difference is not worth the price difference unless you need to run off
the battery for some unspecified longer time.

  There might be a web site that discusses laptop battery choices but I
assume they're all made in China and I treat them as commodities: they're
all the same and price is the differentiator.

Regards,

Rich
