Source on-line for laptop battery: any suggestions?

7. First, find out exactly which battery you need

IF you open it up you may find the part number right on the battery.

Or the link below can help you find the part number by your HP model number information.

(Don't know the above, but if the price is good, they look like legit for HP supplies, you can check their rating on BBB too.)


Second, take that part number and look at places like, Batteries Plus, Interstate Battery. Micro Center or New Egg and see if they have it in stock or available online.

If you wind up on EBay or Amazon, make sure the seller has over 20,000 recommendations 98% good. That will show they have been around long enough and with 98% positive probably aren't screwing people over much. You can also look at what their complaints are about, if they have any about not delivering correct product, move on.

Hope that helps.
