SONY Vaio batteries

[C240Sport97]

need a new battery for an aging VAIO laptop -- model sve151j11m

I just can't find a Sony battery anywhere; it looks like you can only buy batteries that will fit a Vaio, not one made by or for Sony.

Is this because Sony left the laptop business?

If only 3rd party batteries are available, any suggestions which manufacturer to buy?

Thanks.

More or less, when VAIO were spun-off/bought from Sony the existing lines were canned and they exited pretty much all the markets except Japan.

Guess you are stuck with pattern parts - but if you think about it Sony will have had the original LiIon cells made by someone else anyway. Go for a good quality replacement and you will be fine.
