HP ProBook 5320M new battery!

Hi everyone! I have bought this laptop few weeks ago with a 4-cell battery and I musy say I was hoping for longer battery life! Unfortunately, all I'm able to get is about 2.5-3 hours on Powersaver mode just typing in Word and ocacionally visitng some websites. As I needed this laptop for Uni the battery life was one of the most important factors.

I was told this laptop also comes with 6-cell battery which should last up to 10hrs. Does anybody know where I could buy such battery for my laptop. Tried to google it but it doesnt tell me anything. All I found is some online shop in US.

Also, on one of the websites I have found a replacement 12-cell battery for this laptop for about £60. What do you think? Would it be a good one to go for?

By the way, I live in the UK!

 

Thanks!

Dawid

Do you have the full specs for the 12 cells battery?

They sell mostly 4-cells batteries for this model but they do come with different mAH (the more the better), may be that is where you should look for

Hi! Thanks for the reply! I found one with 3000MaH instead of 2800. Would it make any difference?

try to repack your battery. or go to control panel and adjust the power option.

Thank you all for the answers!

I wouldl like to ask for advice. I found an original 6 cell/62wh battery for this laptop. What I also found is 8cell/42wh battery. which one would perform better?
