Replacement battery advice for Acer Aspire 1642ZWLMi

claretsmadbfc · 10-29-2008, 10:58 PM

I have an Acer Aspire 1642ZWLMi laptop and the battery no longer holds its charge. I'm trying to buy a new one off various internet sites but most of them come up with a battery that is compatible with the Acer Aspire 1642WLMi, not the....1642ZWLMi. I don't know if this will work or not?!

I was hoping someone with an idea of laptop batteries may be able to help with this. Basically my original (dead) battery is a Lithium Ion 14.4V 2000mAhr, but all the ones I find that are compatible for the 1642WLMi laptop are 14.8V 4400mAh.

I have emailed a few battery sellers online asking if the difference in ratings is significant but have had no response. If this higher rated one will work with my laptop please let me know, or give me any indication as to what these ratings mean pls!!

Take the battery off and look for the model # of the battery and search for that model of battery, because 1642wlmi is Acer Aspire 1640 series and 1642zwlmi is Acer Aspire 1642z series both specs of the battery appear to be the same maybe just differnt configurations so go by the model number itself just to be safe.
