Was completely DOA. Worked for less than 24hrs. Save your money. Buy the original.

I've owned my UL30A-X5 since the beginning of 2011 (original owner) and the battery is suddenly now failing (I am getting a message on my power meter "Consider replacing your battery"). A) I'm surprised that I've owned this computer for 15 months and the battery is now failing B) The reviews for the replacement battery ASUS sells indicate those batteries are not sold at full capacity (note, not full charge, but full capacity)Please comment and advise.Thank you,JK

I did not. Charged it fully and then used it till less than 7%. I'm averaging 4 days of usage... a mild user (wifi & bluetooth off). Bought a second battery so that I can charge one while the other is being used.

I bought a replacement battery for my 18" Sony laptop some time ago and have been happy. I am not sure the replacement battery is the same as my model number is different. Even with setting the laptop for high performance I can get about an hour usage, when I could hardly get 10 minutes from the original battery. I hope this helps.

The battery worked just fine in my laptop. I have not had a problem with it.

I want to say yes, because i think T420 has the same optical bay as my T530. It fits T530's optical bay perfectly.

William, thanks for taking the time to respond. I will also let everyone know what kind of battery life we observe. Best of luck to you.ww

Did you purchase the correct battery? I bought this one because it was exactly the same one the was in my laptop. I have had no problem with it at all. I kind of agree with the other person that you might have the wrong battery.

I have the same model and battery worked fine without any bios changes. Charged it and used it.

It works ok with my t400 2767 laptop. Occasionally I get a message on the computer about having an incompatible battery installed (only once or twice in several months), but I ignore it, and the machine works fine. The battery charges and lasts about 2 - 2.5 hours (maybe 3 at most). You should be able to consistently get at least 2 hours out of this battery before the level will get low enough to get the warning messages.

The battery is not easily replaceable -- you need to remove the back cover to access it. That isn't too difficult, because the laptop uses standard torx T5 screws. Still, its not simple. However, I've found the battery lasts nearly 6 hours unplugged for typical web browsing, which is good. Also, I've had the computer ~4 months and the battery life hasn't gotten any worse.

I am so happy with my purchase of this battery. It even comes with a lift to prop up my laptop to it has room to breath. I go to amazon for all my needs first. I recommend this battery, you will be as happy with your decision to purchase this battery as I have been. Good luck to you.

I bought it 6 months ago and the battery doesn't hold it's charge more than one hour. In the Linux panel I can see 3 hours of battery in the first time I turn on the notebook, but, as the time is going, these 3 hours showed in the panel is becoming minutes in just 1 real hour.

Yes! That is my exact laptop and so far it is working perfectly (I've had it for a few months, definitely noticed increased battery time from my old, original battery).

I have had mine for several months and I still get 3+ hours on a charge.. Awesome battery for the money IMO.

I am sorry. I think it had a return policy if it did not work. Warranty as such -- ?? I can tell you that it has functioned for me maybe two months and is still doing very well. My only difficulty with it seems to be if I let it go much below 50% in charge it dies pretty rapidly. Overall it appears okay. I use it in an old (2008) laptop which itself has some issues so perhaps I am not the best judge of the battery's quality.
