(More customer reviews)First, a little bit of background information:
I purchased this battery, because I needed a replacement for the (now defective) battery that came with my laptop. The battery that came with the laptop (OEM battery) started off with about a two hour battery life and over the course of a year that number dropped to about five minutes worth of battery power. This was my own fault, as I did not know that leaving the laptop plugged in constantly would do substantial harm to the battery's longevity.
Now, after searching for a while, I found and purchased this battery because it was significantly cheaper than the replacement that HP was offering, and it seemed to be compatible with my computer (model# dv9933cl).
Here's my analysis:
- The battery arrived on time. So I have no complaints with the company itself.
- The battery was nicely packaged and on inspection did not have any scratches, dents, etc.
- Physically, the battery fits into my laptop, but part of it sticks put. It's very small, and unnoticeable, but it definitely sticks out of the battery compartment by a few millimeters. The OEM battery did not stick out at all. But this is a minor complaint, and it does not seem to affect the computer's performance in any way.
- The battery's life span, after a few test runs, seems to be around one hour and fifty minutes. Not as good as the OEM battery initially was, but more than I was expecting.
After owning the battery for about a month, I have no complaints. Obviously I'm being a lot more careful with the battery this time and when I have the laptop plugged to the wall, I remove the battery from the laptop in order to preserve its integrity. That way, hopefully, this battery will last much longer than the OEM battery did.
Bottom Line:
If you're looking for a battery to replace the battery in your laptop, and you don't want to spend the money that HP charges to get a replacement, then I suggest you get this one.
