Please help me pick a battery. I'm confused why the the first one is cheaper, because it has better specs: lasts longer (more mah), and is lighter and smaller. Maybe newer technology?
$37.50 12 cells 7800 mah

The second one is heavier, so maybe it's better quality? And it has "new" in the title, whereas the first only has "new" listed as the item condition.
$57.99 12 cells 6600 mah

NC6400, which on a spec webpage (http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/12446_na/12446_na.HTML) has battery ej092aa listed as compatible, which both listings contain.

The NX models in the first listing are a similar line of laptops to the NC.

That is a good point though. Maybe the first listing wouldve also listed the NC models if they were compatible.

I did notice the NWs and NXs used Pentrium M's, while the NCs use Core 2 duo CPUs, and NC is not in the first linging. Wonder if that has something to do with it. Still, the first listing did list ej092aa.
