Is the battery internal or can it be detached and replaced?

I bought a new one on amazon.com for about $12.00 Bare in mind though that when you do your Christmas shopping, Windows 8 does not support multiple windows to be viewed simultaneously.

No it's not replaceable but the battery won't stop holding a charge for many many years. By that time you will have moved on. Also It has an internal overload shut off so you won't fry the battery.

The laptop has an internal battery, you cannot remove it without opening the casing. I guess it is still possible, but not as easy as in most laptops.

As far as I can tell, the battery is internal. It requires a cord to charge it, which is included with the purchase. Hope this helps!

Doesn't look like it can be replaced. Can't find a way to access the battery.

Unfortunately the battery is not replaceable unless you take the unit apart yourself. There's a couple of youtube videos discussing this but it may be more trouble than it is worth. The sides of the unit are glued together and need to be heated to be taken apart.

Not without a lot of effort. There is a metal flap in the bottom that can be bent open and the battery taken out. Good luck finding a replacement of that size and voltage.

It can be taken out. The battery is in a compartment at your feet. A screwdriver is needed to open the compartment.

It is a rechargeable internal battery not replaceable. Battery lasts a long time, lithium ion I believe.

It is not designed for the owner to replace the battery, however if you are handy you can open it up and replace the battery, it's soldered in so you should be comfortable with a soldering iron.

Technically, you COULD replace the battery but the battery is sealed in the unit so the operation would constitute an unnatural act and, probably soldering and things like that. So, no it is not a consumer replaceable battery.

yes the battery can be replaced and should be. You need to locate the slip shield on it...it is part of the handle where you put your thumb...you need to pull down

It has to be something internal because we have had ours since November and it didn't come with loose batteries to put anywhere.

Well the battery pack is internal and not replaceable... That said if you a resourceful DIY person I'm sure you would open then handle and figure out what its got inside for batteries and locate a replacement if you were so inclined. This one is new so I hope to not discover what's inside for a few years to come.

It has a rechargeable internal battery. How are you planning to take the battery out?

No it cannot be replaced, since it's more than 2 years old and out of warranty they will not fix it citing un availability of parts. You will need to buy a new one. If you are good at taking things apart and soldering you can try to dismantle it and get an after market battery.

There are some batteries that can be replaced. There is apparently another internal battery that can only be replaced by sending back to factory. It is claimed to have a long life.
