Frequently Asked Questions

1. How to find one correct battery for my Dell laptop?

1. find out your old battery's part number, the part number on the battery like type:*****
Dell Battery Part number

2. find out your laptop's model name, like below picture
Dell Battery Part number

3. find out your old battery's rating(voltage), like 7.2V, 7.4V, 10.8V, 11.1V,14.4V,14.8V
Please Note:
1. 7.2V and 7.4V are compatible, they are in common use.
2. 10.8V and 11.1V are compatible, they are in common use.
3. 14.8V and 14.4V are compatible, they are in common use.
( for example if your old battery's rating is 10.8V, but our is 11.1V, don't worry, our 11.1V battery is compatible with your laptop, it won't damage your laptop.
But you can't choose the 7.4V(7.2V) and 14.8V(14.4V) battery, since the 7.4V(7.2V) and 14.8V(14.4V) not compatible with 10.8V.)

4. Don't worry about the difference capacity, high capacity just means the battery can last longer. But please note most high capacity batteries with a bigger size(shape), since them need extra spaces for the battery cells.
( for example the 6600mAh,7800mAh,8800mAh batteries are the high capacity batteries,usually they are with bigger shape(size) then the standard batteries. But the high capacity batteries are fit for your laptop,just will extend out(from bottom/side) about 1 inch. )

Notebook battery performance varies on several factors including: screen brightness, peripheral use, applications used, hard drive activity, CPU use and more.

Notebook Battery Performance Tips:
1.Through your operating system you can specify power management features and functions - optimize these features and areas to expand notebook battery run-time.
2.New notebook batteries need breaking in: fully charge the notebook battery, discharge it down to 20% remaining and then fully charge it again, repeat 3-4 times to break-in the notebook battery and get it to charge to its maximum
3.Regularly clean notebook battery contacts to maintain good and clean contacts between the notebook battery and laptop. A cotton swab and alcohol can be used to clean notebook battery contacts
4.Exercise the notebook battery, at the minimum you should use the notebook battery once at least every couple weeks. If you haven't used your laptop battery in sometime then use the break-in procedures again as described above
