« on: April 04, 2021, 03:43:16 PM »
I'm trying to find a replacement laptop battery for my toshiba chromebook  cb35-c330, it seems the the batteries online are low quality that soon die, any ideas?

Unless you can find a true OEM official battery, then you'll have to deal with cheap knock offs that only last 1-2 years.  The real ones will be about 3-4 times the cost of the knock offs.

Check a place like Battery Plus. Their laptop batteries are made by brands you've heard of and they offer warranties.

I have a dress watch I wear about once every year or two.  The battery dies between uses.  I bought a battery for it at Batteries Plus with a lifetime battery card.  I keep the 'lifetime card' in the case with the watch (and I've kept the case just because of that).  I've lost count of how many batteries they've put in that watch - I just have to remember to get it replaced before events.
