Dell WY9DX Replacement Battery Review

Dell WY9DX replacement battery, the 42Wh 3-cell 11.4V pack for the Dell Latitude 5420, Latitude 5520 and Precision 3560.

Dell's Latitude 5420 spec sheet lists this 3-cell 42Wh pack as the smaller of two battery options, at 207.9 mm long versus 238 mm for the 4-cell 63Wh pack (Dell RJ40G). Parts-People sells it as the Dell OEM WY9DX and lists M3KCN, WK3F1, R89GC and 05R42 as older codes for the same part.
