I've been searching for battery replacement for Alienware 17 R3, contacted Dell but it is no longer available, as this model is older than 5 years.

Googlefu lead me to laptopbattery.com.my, but the site rating is so bad, reviews are saying the batteries die fast, with no chance of RMAing the thing.

So I wanna know where do you find trustworthy OEM battery seller?

you can try this shop https://www.takumiko.com.my/ . I changed my dell 15 inspiron battery from them. the price they quoted compare to official Dell is about 50% cheaper. Yes, they provide me OEM battery with 3 months warranty. The battery is still in good condition until now. It's been working/serving me for 2 years and still counting. My laptop is my daily driver. 8hrs a day, 6days a week. Battery still can run without charging for 5-6hrs of graphic editing usage.

Shopee selling for rm 140, local seller

Its incredibly easy to change the battery, and considering the price, changing after 1 year also worth it.

I kept my AW14 battery disconnected all times unless needed to prolong lifespan.

Nope.... not this. Also, the battery that I am searching for, is ultra hard to remove. Have to remove the bottom panels and stuffs.
