The battery arrived and worked just fine for a couple of months, but 4 months after we purchased it, the battery would not hold a charge. We previously had the original HP battery in the laptop and that one lasted about a year and 2/3 before we needed to replace it because it could not hold a charge. We were very underwhelmed to have such a poor performing item. I will pay the extra couple of bucks to get the genuine HP product.

This battery is worthless. It won't even register when charging and loses power as soon as you unplug the laptop. Our laptop also runs much slower. I'm beginning to wonder if this was a used or defective battery. I would never recommend purchasing it from this source.
PROs: Cheap, inexpensive
CONs: Underpowered, low life expectency.
When purchasing a new battery, you MUST look at the replacement battery part number, the mw rating, voltage and laptop model. Although this device will work on for example a CQ-60 series, it will be under-powered for say a CQ-650 series which requires a 12 cell 10.8v 8800mw battery. Do NOT expect this battery to last very long--it's fine if you're desperate for a battery and are low on funds but in the long time it's better to spend more money and get one that if correct for your computer.
The battery came as specified, and even earlier than expected! So far I haven't had any problems with the life of the battery. One thing I have noticed is that now when I go to turn on my laptop, it won't turn on unless I have the charger plugged in at the same time. Not sure if that's the battery's problem, or my laptop. As far as the battery goes, so far so good.
I have installed the battery and have used it for a day. The battery is fully charged. Then to check the health of the battery I used HP care Advisor to check and report on the Health of the Battery. The report is showing that the Health of the battery is "POOR" and it needs replacement. What is this.???
Please advise as under these circumstances I am not confident of the product
Rcvd both batteries in 4 days, including the weekend. Waiting for my granddaughter to let me know if the one I put in her laptop is an improvement over the old one we recycled at BestBuy. No complaints so far.
This was the first time that I ordered from Amazon.com. I am very happy with the items that I purchased. The battery fits perfect and preforms as it should...if not better than the original. The power cord also fits and works great. My shipping was free and was delivered in only 3 days! And I ordered with confidenance in knowing that Amazon.com guaranteed returns. - Hp Laptop Battery - Battery - 12 Cell - Hp Laptop'
