Am I able to test this battery to make sure it works? I am not 100% sure a if it's my battery or my laptop that died.

If the laptop works while plugged in, it's the battery. Check your hp laptop battery status by doing the battery recalibration as shown in the hp support assistant. If you can't find it on the laptop, do a web search referencing your model and "battery recalibration instructions" good luck!

First, confirm that this this the correct replacement battery. Second, to be absolutely sure, take your laptop with the old battery down to a computer battery store or someone like Best Buy and have it checked. On my battery, due to the age of the battery, it wouldn't hold a charge any longer than 2-3 hours, so I replaced it. How old is your battery? Best of luck.

Most likely a power cord issue. Usually a dying battery would have signs of low storage, instead of suddenly not working, though the port itself may be warped. Try leaving it on the chage an hour then try turning it back on.

Is it possible the battery is not charged? The instructions suggest it is necessaryto discharge fully then recharge. It may be it came discharged, and must be on charge to be recognized, I bought an inexpensive battery and it lasted aboutthree days, then began indicating it should be replaced. The only other possibilitywould be an incorrect battery?Best regards,Sammy

This battery failed within 30 days. I didn't know who to talk with to request a new battery or my money back. I have only been able to operate my computer plugged, in since that time. Can you help me, at this late date, and supply me with a good battery? Mary Ann Fortier

Most likely your laptops circuit board is bad and unable to recharge any battery, genuine or after market.

If it is a new unit, try a different new battery (as the battery could be defective), followed by a different new unit.If it is an old unit, I would suspect it has failed (i.e. reached its lifetime, say over 5 years), and needs replacement.

I would take the battery out...let it sit. Then after 5 minutes put back in and see if it works OK...

While I can't tell you that I can tell you that doing a bit of checking goes a long way. I'd look at the stock OEM battery if you still have it. Get the model Number and look around starting with that. It's what I did when I didn't find a battery that listed my laptop model. I now have a fine Anker battery and a 2 hour battery life.

Well...it could be your battery. Try using the plug after removing the battery from it and if the laptop comes on, its definitely your battery!!

My replacement battery works great, search for acer aspire laptop battery and model #' look at it close to see if it matches your original battery numbers and volts and connections.

My dell computer detected this was not a Dell certified battery and would not charge or use it for power. I returned it no problem. You might be successful in your case but did not work for me.

Check the battery being replaced model number and compare. Thats what I did, also check the available pictures to compare them physically. Last thing, google it.

Mine never worked at all. My advice would be to do like I did: request a refund, then throw this battery in the garbage and spend a few bucks on an Anker or other decent brand. :-) Seriously, you may want to remove the battery while the computer is plugged in and see if it changes anything on the status display. If it changes, you know the battery is bad, if not, I would suspect a problem with the computer.

It might be defective and has to be exchanged. I purchased the same battery more than 6 months ago and I had no problems with it so far. I traveled a lot with my netbook and it would provide me at least 4-5 h of work from one charge every time.

You did better than i did, mine only lasted me one year. However you have to be careful not to over charge that battery. That's what damaged mine. Good luck.

Hmm, good question. I wonder if the connection to the battery is bad? Maybe it was connected for the first 14 hours and then got jarred loose somehow? I would probably take the battery out and put it back in, making sure that the contacts seem to be clean and touching. If that doesn't do anything, I would call a local battery store and see if they have any way of testing the battery to see if it is good. If there is nothing obvious wrong with the battery, I would probably call the company that installed the unit and see if they have any suggestions. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
