My SL6000 is starting to show signs that the battery is dying. It doesn't last as long on a full charge as it once did.
I did some quick searching this evening looking for replacment batteries but only found one at Streamline for $150!

Do any of you know of other locations that might be cheaper?

I found mine on ebay for $55 each. I got two of them. I think that you can still have ebay notify you if a certain auction comes up. It might be worth the wait to pay 1/3 the price.

I am sure there are cheaper ones out there, but I was unable to find them. I just bought one from streamlinecpus, and it has given my 6000L new life (especially wlan life). Kind of expensive, but still cheaper than a new Z.
I went the ebay and amazon.com route, but nothing came up for 3 weeks, so I bit the bullet and went with streamlinecpus. I will say, although pricey, they do have good service.
I hope this helps,
Craig...

Streamline CPUs website is down, and my battery is showing signs of being turned to paste as well.
I hate to see that this great handheld computer is about to be tethered to an AC outlet.
I wonder where we can get replacement batteries now?

Hi Little Goomba,
I wonder where we can get replacement batteries now?
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=166483\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]
we still have stock of EA-BL09. They're also pretty
fresh (OK, production date December 2006, but no
dusty 2004ers ).
If you're interested, just send us a PM or mail to
zaurus(at)trisoft.de .

Dynamism seems to be able to get them. I've ordered one and they tell me it should get to me (in the US) in a couple of weeks.
Total including shipping: $130
New...not refurbished. Dun know if they're new new, or old new.
I'll post again when I get it.

Got it. Came in a sealed box, looked fresh and new, but no manu date stamp. Seems to hold a charge decently well.

provided an LiIon battery is properly stored, it won't age too much; I guess in theory they're still made as the 6000 is still on sale in Jp, but not being commodity item they're bound to be expensive
-
Conics, Pricejapan and Dynamism can all get the battery. Price Japan was the most expensive one at roughly 160 USD. The others are around 130 USD shipped. I just ordered one from conics. I'll post when it comes with condition etc.
-
Well a week and a half later I have my battery. It is in brand new condition. Conics was very fast to reply to emails and shipped quickly.

All,
I have several new batteries for the SL-6000. Check the classified section or PM me
