Where do I buy a replacement battery for a MacBookPro6,2

After 1504 cycles, the "Replace Soon" warning has shown up on my mid-2010 MacBook Pro. I am 100% capable of replacing the battery myself, however I can't find anywhere on Apple's website to buy the replacement battery. All it says is to bring it in for them to replace which is not an option for me at this time.
Does anyone have a SPECIFIC recommendation on where to buy a GENUINE replacement battery for my model? And please don't say "ebay" or "amazon".
Here are the specs on my model: http://support.apple.com/kb/SP582

Apple insists on installing the batteries in unibody MBP's them selves and will NOT sell you the battery otherwise.  Your alternative is to make an appointment or ship the MBP to them.
Yes, it is easy to install the battery.  I have taken mine out a couple of times.
Ciao.
I'm looking for a non-Apple, non-ebay, non-amazon source for the battery. My Macbook Pro is in use 12+ hours per day for school and work so sending it in for a replacement is also not an option. So strange how it's impossible to find this battery for sale from an online retailer. Macmall, OWC, MacConnection, PowerMax, SmallDog... nobody sells them. :-(

  • Where can I buy a replacement battery for a 17" PowerBook G4?

    Just was advised by Apple Care that Apple no longer sells replacement batteries for the 'vintage' PowerBook G4. Does anyone know of an alternate source where I might be able to buy a replacement battery?

  • Where can I buy a new battery for my macbook

    Where can I buy a new battery for my macbook

    Depending on the build year model configuration
    (reference serial number lookup online) you may
    have a MacBook w/ built-in battery, or maybe not.
    If yours does not have a user-accessible battery
    you may want to look into iFixit.com guides to see
    what they suggest for your specific MacBook.
    And then consider if you are up to the DIY steps
    with ability to do the complete service yourself,
    or if not, then contact a qualified certified service
    center to inquire their estimate for part + labor.
    However if your computer does have an easily
    replaced battery with external access where
    you are essentially looking at the battery, that
    is just a matter of identifying the correct Mac
    to get a matching part from reputable reseller.
    You could probably get a replacement battery
    from Apple, if the computer isn't really old...
    Or you could look online at places such as
    OWC where they offer a few batteries. Just
    be sure to avoid the low-end no-name clones
    from auction sites or cheap copy imports.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Can I buy a replacement battery for iphone4?

    Hi guys, just wondering if it is possible to buy a replacement battery for an iPhone 4? Even the section on the Apple website entitiled battery replacement doesn't answer the question.
    Cheers.

    No. You cannot buy a battery from Apple.
    You can pay Apple to replace it for you.
    Apple offers a battery replacement for $79, plus $6.95 shipping, subject to local tax. Apple disposes of your battery in an environmentally friendly manner.

  • Where can I get a replacement battery for my 13 inch MacBook for a reasonable price?

    I have been searching for a replacement battery for my 13 inch MacBook.  Does any one have any good recommendations on where to get one for a reasonable price?

    You can get a new third party battery fairly cheap on eBay. Every MacBook from 2006 through Mid 2009 except the Late 2008 Aluminum Unibody and the Late 2009 and 2010 White Unibodies use the same A1185 battery.

  • Where can i buy a replacement trackpad for my macbook pro with retina display

    recently the new force touch trackpad is out and I'm really excited about it and sometimes my multi-touch trackpad is a little glitchy so I'm wondering is there any place to buy a replacement trackpad for my macbook like multi-touch or force click trackpad replacement

    My guess is they wouldn't introduce new production line just for the 1 or two milimeter difference. They will probably just change their marketing material and websites to add Retina as compatible. Then again I'm not a manufacturer.
    In reality though, apart from hard-shell cases/sheilds that have to attach directly on the laptop, the cases and sleeves are already compatible.

  • My Macbook is old enough, where do I buy a replacement battery

    My Macbook is old enough, and the battery almost dead. I don't want to buy original battery from Apple store again. But I would like to continue to use the computer for some time. Where to buy a compatible battery? Not Ebay, California online store would be better.
    Model: MacBook Pro 15 inch MA463
    Thanks!

    Seems it is a company selling batteries in California, hope this page can help you:

  • Where can I buy original apple battery for 13" Mid 2010 MBP?

    My battery life has decreased dramatically and I need a replacement battery. I don't want to go to an appe authorized service center to fix this problem. It's a relatively simple and cheap fix and apple authorised service center will ask for a lot of money.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    A battery replacement at an Apple Store or reseller costs $129 + labour, which is quite similar to the cost of buying a battery in the Internet.
    Anyway, you can buy the battery in the Internet. There are different websites, but I recommend you to buy it at iFixit > http://www.ifixit.com/MacBook-Parts/MacBook-Pro-13-Inch-Unibody-Battery/IF163-01 9

  • Where can I get a replacement battery for the iBook G3 Clamshell M6411, in the UK?

    I recently managed to source an Indigo iBook G3 clamshell - the M6411 FireWire model - from eBay.
    It's in superb condition, but the battery has had it, and only holds about 5-10 minutes' charge.
    Can anyone suggest where I can get a replacement? I guess I just assumed it would be easy, but everywhere I look online they're either sold out or cost a fairly large amount of money - I paid £50 for the laptop, which was a pretty good deal, and had hoped to get a battery for under £30 (as I've bought similar replacement batteries before for other laptops).
    Also, are all the G3 Clamshell batteries the same? Or do the different models have different batteries?

    Some items come up in a search for Mac parts UK; whether or not they have
    an exact part match for any vintage product has not been searched...
    Most that I have looked into, show any battery "out of stock" &/or listed "used."
    A good electronics shop with an understanding of how these batteries are wired
    in their case (and any controller chip circuitry) should be able to install new cells
    inside the case; however opening these may present a problem if done forcefully.
    http://www.thebookyard.com/
    http://www.applemacparts.co.uk/store/index.php
    http://www.theappleshack.co.uk/
    In the US, wegenermedia.com, powerbookmedic.com, & others may know of stock.
    So far, I'd struck out searching; could be one may need to contact long standing
    Apple specialists & those who repair vintage models, to get refurbished batteries.
    Perhaps there is a message board or User Group site where one could try & contact
    Apple users; of those some may know of a source, or an individual capable of repair
    since these battery units have been refurbished before with new rechargeable cells.
    Sorry to not be of exact help in this matter.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Can I buy a replacement battery for my 13 inch Macbook Pro from Apple?

    The battery for my Early 2011 13-inch Macbook Pro is now completely dead, no longer even recognized by my computer.  Anyone know if I take it into the apple store if they can replace it for me?  I didn't see a battery in the Apple Store that would work, but would they have one there?

    Why don't you call them up & ask??????

  • Where to buy a replacement battery for iPod 5?

    Unfortunately, I wanted to play music in my car when we went on a road trip, it was fully charged but I wanted the music to keep on playing. It was on for almost 15 hours. It was a stupid mistake, and now every time I charge it fully, an hour later, the battery life is already cut down in half. It is frustrating to keep on constantly charging it, and it makes it harder to use if I have something important to do but it keeps on losing battery life. I put it on the lowest brightness, turned off all apps, and did many other things to try and prevent it from losing too much battery life, but I think it's already "exhausted" enough. I still have about 160 something days left on my warranty, and I read on here, that I am able to have a free replacement if the warranty is still active. Do I have to get it at an Apple store? Or can I order it online somehow? 

    Skydiver...
    Totally outside my bailiwick since I have no iPhone, but is it not true that one could purchase that fine device from a cell service provider like AT&T or T-Mobile? In every case I can think of, no matter what product it may be, warranty service starts at the original PoP?
    Not knowing how or where it was purchased, I said what I said. Genius Bar my well be the route.
