E5470 Different Batteries Compatibility

Hi,

I have a couple of Latitude E5470 Laptops with battery problems. I ordered new batteries but after replacing, none of the batteries are recognized :s

Same thing had happened last year as well, whereby the battery ordered had a different voltage. So this time I took that into consideration as well.

These work fine: Type 6MT4T, 62Whr, 7.6V, min. 7750mAh
These don't: Type R0TMP, 62WHR, 7.6V, 8260mAh

What gives? Can anyone assist to clarify the difference in batteries and their voltage and mAh? Attached pictures as well if required.

Don't work

Works

    Hi,

    I asked someone to order them from me via Dell, Canada as in Tanzania we can't import lithium ion batteries due to air space restrictions.

    Necroing this because I have the reverse problem. 

    I'm trying to replace the R0TMP battery on my E5450 and bought a genuine replacement and was sent a 6MT4T that isn't recognised. 

    The battery compatibility on these laptops is smoke and mirrors!
