New Battery Help

Okay so I have a Mac PowerBook G4 15"

I need a new battery, but all the batteries i've looked up online have been square shaped, where as my battery is rectangular and metal.

I really need this new battery, but i don't want to spend money on a battery that won't work...any ideas where i can get a new one?

P.S. i also need some new RAM, if anybody could tell me where i could get this, it would be great

Thanks a lot 🙂

P.P.S. I'm also not sure if it's aluminum or titanium...i know it sounds stupid but i don't really know anything about hardware 😝

Hello,

If you take the battery out of your PowerBook and look at the label on the bottom of it, it should give you a model number like A*** something (Unless it's not a genuine Apple battery). Use that to buy the correct battery. You can search on the web for that battery/part number.

Best of luck
