We ordered this replacement battery for my 4 year old Inspiron 1545 and installed it as soon as it arrived, since the old battery died just about that time. We followed the enclosed directions for installing it (charging it fully overnight with the computer turned off) and it has been working fine ever since.

Yes, it's working just great on my inspiron N4010. Because of the extra capacity it's slightly larger than the original battery but I don't notice it, and -bonus- it helps protect the power jack and mouse dongle when traveling. Worth every penny!

I have an Dell Inspiron 1721, My old battery was a Dell Make 11.1V Rating and capaicty of 85WH Type FK890. The Battery puchased from Amazon works great and with no problems and $125.00 cheaper than Dell Brand. I recomend this battery for my laptop, as long as it fits your configuration for battery connect it should work fine for you.

I believe this battery will work for your laptop if the laptop is one of those listed as compatible with the battery. However I cannot guarrantee efficiency. The battery with "Dell" inscription on it works satisfactorily as this was the type I bought to replace my old battery.

I'm answering you on an Inspiron 1440 with the battery installed. Performance is totally satisfactory.

I bought mine for an inspiron n5030. Charges to100% perfectly and gives me almost 6 hours run time!! Great battery. Not sure why yours didn't charge all the way up. But i would maybe have them send you another one maybe just a bad one?

Really don't know what could be causing this. A guess would be a defective charger or some other hardware problem. When I got my battery, I just took it out of the box, put it in the computer and let it charge. Been working fine ever since. Perhaps you could look on line with Dell 1545 laptop not recognizing battery." Usually, other people will experience similar issues.

Yes. It should work well. It's a veratile battery. I've used it in several 1545 laptops with different model numbers and it works well. The only difference is the amount of life. The more volts the lower the time off the charger. For example, I used it on a 1545 with 19.4v and it fits well and the battery life off charger it about 2.5 hours with no streaming, just web surfing and reading. I hope this helps.

Are you sure this particular batter is compatible with you model of Dell? I had no problems with mine. You may also try reinstalling the battery. When I tried to install the first time I didn't get the battery seated properly. Beyond that I am at a loss.

I have the same computer and i bought this battery. It worked well for about a month and then crash, the computer stop recogniizing it. I end up buying the original from Dell and although was a little more expensive I did not have any problem since then.

Hello. I have the inspiron n5010 aka 15r. It works great. There is one issue. Occasionally I will get a plugged in but not charging. All I have to do its remove the plug and put it back in. Then it works, issue 2 is sometimes my battery monitor application will tell me that it was unable to get battery name or information. That is rare but I just have to unplug the charger and put it back in. One thing to look for. This battery isn't how the pictures list it. It sticks out the bottom not the back, I personally like it because it helps with air flow

Hi Margot, I honestly couldn't tell you. Do you have the model number of your Dell Inspiron 15? There is another site I use that is pretty detailed in finding it. It's called www.laptops4less.com I have ordered from them before and they are reputable. Sorry I couldn't help you more. :\

Yes it works on my Inspirion 1545. It came fully charged and ready to use. I have only had a week with no problem so I don't know how long it work before breaking.

The bullet point I referred to when deciding whether it would work for my inspiron 1545 said the following:"New OEM Genuine 9 cell 85WH GP952 battery for Dell Inspiron 1525, Inspiron 1526, Inspiron 1545, Inspiron 1546, Vostro 500 Laptop"The battery fits my laptop fine, and I suspect it would fit yours. One thing to note is that the battery was bigger than the battery my computer came with, so it sticks out about 0.75 inches from the back of my laptop. I consider that space totally worth it, as the battery has a longer life than the original battery.

Yes, I have the Dell Inspiron 1520. I just received the battery today, and it came with a 85 percent charge on it. I plugged it in to fully charge it, and it stopped at 99 percent. Time will tell if this thing works, and holds a charge

I purchased that battery for my Dell 5010 and it is working great (four months now) The only problem I have had - and it's minor- is that occasionally when i recharge, I get a message that the computer can't "read" the battery number and to replace with a dell battery. I unplug and replug it in and it starts charging no problem. That's happened about 5 times in 4 months. so not really a big deal.
