Need to know about replacement batteries and compatibility.

[Steve-man]

Hey Forum,

So, my girlfriend's laptop battery hasn't worked for a while and has to stay connected to the wall to work. I want to get her a new one but have some questions.

I need to know whether I need the battery with the exact same model number, or if others might be compatible. It would help me a lot as they're pretty expensive in my country and and would like to have some options.

The model is:

Acer Aspire 5740-332g50mn

Thanks in advance.
