Does this battery allow you to see the time/percentage of charge remaining in the OS? Many aftermarket batteries don't.

It does but it's not always accurate. Only because it's not real time. For example if you wake your computer it will show the % but that % is what it was at the last time you used it so after a minute or two adjusts to the actual %. Hope that makes sense :)

Yes. Does not seem to last as long as my original Apple battery. I get about 3 hours compared to 4 for the apple. Still for the price, how can you beat it.

Yes. It monitor the charge of the battery and stops when charging is complete.

Want to know when the battery issue is resolved.The laptop seems great, but the battery work for just one hour instead of 6.5hours and there is a need to resolve this issue as soon as possible.

I've been using my new battery for about a month now, and I'm delighted with its performance. My HP G62 laptop's charger has the same specs as yours, and has worked just fine. After a four hour session unplugged, the new battery still shows 25% left. My old OEM battery (3years old) would barely make it past 2 hours unplugged. When I plug in to recharge the NEW battery, the "brick" on the charger is working hard and therefore gets quite warm. But that's to be expected since it got almost as warm when recharging the lower capacity OEM battery. Overall I'm delighted with my new battery and its extended working time. To me, it has been well worth the extra few bucks I paid over just buying an OEM equivalent battery. I strongly recommend this higher capacity battery, and believe it will work just fine with OEM chargers.

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.

To me, it lasts at least as the original when it was new and maybe longer. It is really hard to tell without all parameters being equal in a head on replicated test which of course i have not done. Under my normal use I am getting through the day every day and still have about 50% of the charge left, where as my old battery that was greatly reduced in its ability to function correctly was often not getting me through the day and in some instances dying during the morning hours. In the older batteries younger life it did last all day and I would then again charge it overnight.

NO....it works as well as the original battery. If you use avg. data , good for 3 hrs.....Less data 4-6hrs.

Ms Wunderlich, I'm sorry - I don't really know the true answer to your question. I'd have to tear my whole system (servers, etc.) down to find if it's really the APC brand battery. What I CAN tell you is that the one I have in the unit now - whether it's an APC or not - has lasted longer than the original. That in mind, I can't reinforce enough the 5-star rating I gave both the item and vendor ( I don't work for them, nor do I get a kick-back, btw). I'm just really satisfied with it - which doesn't happen very often. If you DO opt for this particular item and it doesn't work, you can come down to TX and kick my butt. Suspect this falls short of the answer for which you seek; however, it's the best I can give w/o shutting down my whole system. Regards and Happy New Year to you and yours, -Jesse

Yeah..the math would be 40%. Can't tell from the speaker, tho. If you download the app, you can use the app to monitor the battery.

The battery last for a while when fully charged, and when I first inserted it, it did say service battery but give it a couple of minutes and it should show battery percentage.

From my experience with this battery grip, it does show the accurate battery charge. However, I am not 100% certain.

battery arrives ready to use. It has never been fully discharged in my case and no charge indicator on my system, so no way to know full rechagre time.

Not that I can tell. It is where I store it and the battery is working for me

No, not completely. At least not that I'm aware of. When it's been idle for a little while, it goes into a standby mode where it displays BC 5.12 (the model number) and the current time.

I don't think so, there's no indicator except the light which seems to flash fast most of the time when charged but not all of the time, perhaps that's an indicator but it doesn't say so on the instruction sheet which is pretty uninformative.
