This is a good battery: FLYTEN PA5186U-1BRS
I spent quite a bit of time searching Amazon for this particular battery. My Toshiba model is S55T-C5165. This was the only battery that was an exact match to the voltage on the original battery (see picture: 14.8V / 45Wh / 2800mAh). And the compatible battery model numbers listed for this FLYTEN PA5186U-1BRS battery included my model (see picture: PA5195U-1BRS). I've been using this battery for 27 DAYS. Two days a week I run my laptop on battery for approximately 2 hours. Depending on the energy savings settings this battery lasts anywhere from 2 to 4 hours. This battery performs just as well as my original Toshiba battery. IMPORTANT: There were no instructions included with this battery on how to properly condition it, so I searching the Internet for a procedure. This is the procedure I found: I completely shutdown the laptop. Then disconnected all cables especially the power cord. I installed the battery. I then connected only the power cord and left it shut down for at least 8 hours. This is the first step of the conditioning process allowing the battery to get a 100% charge. I then disconnected the power cord, started up the laptop and verified it had charged 100%. At this point I left the power cord disconnected and ran it only on battery power. When the battery drained to 10% or less I again shut it down completely and then connected the power cord. I waited another 8 hours or longer for it to get the 100% charge. I then disconnected the power cord as before and used it until the battery had drained to 10% or less. I repeated this process 3-4 times over the course of a few days. After 27 days the battery is still performing very well. I definitely recommend Flyten for this particular battery model. The only reason I rated the battery life at 4 out of 5 stars is because it's only been 27 days. But I'm confident the battery will perform well over the long term.

Good battery worth money
Easy to replace holds charge pretty good. Saved me from buying a new computer. Well worth the money you don’t have to take every screw out like they show on utube just ones holding the battery in placr
