Is this a good fit for HP G60t Notebook and how long does it hold a charge on average? My current battery lasts only 1 hour unplugged.

Battery charge will depend on usage and settings. . . that said, my CQ60 will run on high performance for about 7 hours on this battery before i have to recharge it. If I drop the preset power management to "balanced" I will get about 8 hours. If I move the power management to "battery saver" I get close to 9 hours on a charge. As far as the battery "slipping out" I found that this battery installs OPPOSITE how the OEM battery installed. . . meaning to get it to lock in place, I had to put it in the slot tabs first, then slide the battery release and let the battery fall into it's final resting place. If you take a minute and look at how it goes in, you'll be all good.

Installed this in my sons HP...don't rmbr the model but he hasn't complained...

It fit my G60 quite well. I can't say for sure that yours would be identical, but it does list G60 series, so the battery is likely identical. I haven't timed it yet, but I seem to be getting around 5 to 6 hours of continuous use (depending on what I'm doing) before a charge is required.

I don't know about yours as I have an HP HDX16. On normal, I can hold 3-4 hours depending on what's open, power saver a good 5+ hrs. I don't know if i answered your question but this is my current status; April 28, 2014.

It fit in my G60-125NR just fine, however I only get 2 hours max out of it.. I don't recommend it

Yes it worked very well till the computer died. If I remember it ran about 3-4 hours

I don't own a G60t just a G70. But it fits well if not a little loosely. I do have problems with it "falling" out and my computer shutting off. Before those issues though it would hold a good 8-10 hour charge if you use power saver or just not run it at full speed.

I've had my Lenovo since June and almost exclusively keep it plugged in. I used the battery a couple of times but only for a short period. So, I really can't comment on the battery life. However, I do understand that it's good for only 2 hours or so. I've read other complaints about that. Also, can't comment on the battery replacement issue. Sorry!

This battery fits and works perfectly with my HP G60. If yours does not fit I would return it.

For me, it didn't last long. I let the battery that I bought for a 24 hour charge before using the laptop without it being pligged in the charger. It had at least a good 6 hours before battery needed to ne charged again. So I turned off my laptop and waited for it to charge. Then the next day, battery didn't work anymore as it would only hold maximum charge of 13%.

Here is a link for the HP G62 manual http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02542102.pdf Look for page 51 RTC ie CMOS battery for advice on fitting. The new battery in my G60 is a 2 wire 3 pin connector. 3 volt. I understand some CMOS battery's which look similar are only 2 pin. So you need to check out the connector pin in yours to see if it is 2 or 3. I still have the partly used CMOS from my G60, which you are welcome to try if you wish, before you buy one.

Hartley: I find that question impossible to answer, because I just purchased the Dell lap top and even though there is information about the battery it's self, there is none about the length of time that it will last. Sorry! I found two things help in keeping the battery lasting longer. One, before charging, let the battery run down until the warning on your lap top signals says, charge it and always charge it all the way, don't pull the plug before you have a complete charge. This does help in keeping a longer battery life. Hope this helps.

I have no issues with this battery. I run my laptop for hours at a time typically, so I keep it plugged in. If you were to run as little as possible, I'd say it would probably last an hour or two.

I have had this computer for approximately 14 months and my battery holds charge now for only about an hour to 90 minutes. I am having difficulty finding another one, can someone please tell me what replacement battery would work? thanks!

I'm not sure. Yet one of the other problems with the replacement battery is that its plastic tabs are smaller than an original HP battery. So, the battery doesn't seat firmly. It's enough contact to charge but will not stay in the computer.

I actually don't know w/o doing some research. This one provides about 2 hours of battery life for an older HP laptop. The laptop is on travel right now so cannot verify the model number.

It works on my wifes HP laptop. I don't know the exact time it holds a charge, but she said she is happy with how long it holds the charge.

No to both questions. The battery is internal, and the screen does not support touch. When unplugged, for basic browsing and office functions I get about 3-4 hours before I need to plug it in again. Also, I'm not a fan of touch screens, which is why I went with this laptop, I have it running windows 7 which I had to purchase.

I purchased the batteries for the very same laptop; I have the 15.4 Lenovo T61 model and both batteries work very well with the laptop. Considering that the laptop is "dated" by technology standards; each battery has been holding up quite well. I get about 4.5 hrs of usage.

Sorry for the delay. The battery I purchased for my laptop is working great. Only $20-25 dollars and working like it did when I first got it. Holds a charge for 6-8 hours if I am not watching a movie. Really pleased with the purchase.

Thanks for the reply! I also frequent notebookreview.com....I received my UL30A-A2 today, though, and will put it through the battery test hoops over the next couple of days. Even if it is not the advertised 16 hours 12 hours is still absolutely excellent imo!

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.
