Hi,
My laptop battery is going bad. It will only charge to 35% now, and I don't think it's long for this world. I like my laptop and besides the battery it's working fine. But the battery is internal -- I will have to crack open the back of the laptop and replace it. That's not too daunting, but I find searching for a replacement battery is confusing. I found some entries on Amazon that say they will replace my battery, then find comments in the review section that this battery doesn't really work for a 17-u273cl. Is it worth it to go to the trouble and try and replace it? Or will I have boot issues if I do as I saw in some comments.
