Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This battery deserves 5 stars for its performance and HP deserves 0 stars for its misleading "Up to 5-8 HRS Battery Life" statement on the front of the package for an average of 2 1/2 stars.
If you need to run your laptop on battery power for long periods of time, this is the only way to go. I consistently get 3 ½ to 4 hours of "real" operation from this battery. After owning many laptops over the years where 1 ½ hours of battery operation was normal, I'm very happy with this battery.
While this battery may be twice the size of the standard battery, it only raises the back of the laptop by 3/4". And while this battery is twice as heavy as the original battery, when you consider that it is intended to be used instead of the original battery, the added weight is only about 11 ounces (extended battery @ 22oz. minus original battery @ 11oz. = 11oz.
When you consider the other option, a universal battery such as APC UPB80 80W Battery for Notebooks at 2.0 pounds, this battery's weight is really not a problem. Add the fact that this extended life battery has more battery capacity, 95 vs APC's 88 Watt Hours, that its body sits snuggly halfway inside the laptop instead of hanging loose outside of the laptop, and costs far less than a universal battery (almost half with good shopping), this is as good as it gets.
