Dean,
Thanks for the tip. I just checked them out, and they have battery packs that look legit [no questionable "Dell" logos]. I will be purchasing from them.

Anybody reading this thread who needs to buy a lithium battery pack for any device would be well advised to be skeptical of absurdly inexpensive packs. If you google "Dell U4873" battery, you will get a zillion hits from unknown vendors offering to sell you a "Dell" branded battery pack for about the price of a large pizza!!! Are they rebuilt packs, you ask? Most don't specify, but even if they are, that is simply too cheap to be trusted. Do yourself a favor and only buy lithium batteries from a reputable supplier.

I realize that I probably sound like my usual paranoid self, but when things go wrong with lithium batteries it can get really ugly. Just sayin'...

Thanks again!

Jim
