Laptop battery purchase attention

We often see the 50$ original Dell laptop battery or Apple battery in Ebay. We are also asked about that : your battery is a original battery or not. You should realize that : the battery with the original Brand logo maybe not the original battery.

According to my 5-6 years market experience of laptop battery industry , http://www.battery4.us share some battery purchase note with you.

1. Now the laptop battery market is confusedly. Many low-cost "original" laptop batteries flooded the market. Most of these batteries are the original renovation battery (using a low-quality cells); the same pack with the original battery, no protection battery quality; Some of it is a true original stock battery, but most of them are produced for a long time (even more than two years).

The battery performance greatly reduced, as we all knows laptop battery is a consumable items, lose the performance even in stock; And there is no real brand new original laptop battery in the market, because battery manufacturers will be asked to produce the detail terms number battery by laptop manufacture, according to the amount of customized. The original laptop battery has an official one-year warranty, the market prices are mostly in the $150-200.

2. We all know, the lowest-cost maintenance approach to repair laptop battery (as Lifebook T4220 battery ) is replace the cells. Note that this is the least, sometimes you may have to replace protection board. A good imported batteries cell such as Sanyo, Sony, Samsung and other brands are 5.0$ or more in the market, high-capacity of 6$. Replaceme a 6-cell battery will takes about 35$ dollars or more.

Therefore, we can estimate the original laptop battery Price: 6 cell + battery protection board + enclosure + test fee + R & D costs + packaging + transportation + labor costs + a series of warranty after-sales and other costs, original laptop battery ex-factory price at least 60$, so You should carefully select these 40-50$ "original" Toshiba laptop battery in the market .

3. The main difference between High-quality and low-quality laptop battery Cells

I make the laptop battery as example to explain the diffenence for everyone. There are three kinds laptop battery in the market as following:

1. An original laptop batteries, good quality, need not any evaluation.
2. The famous brand laptop batteries like http://www.battery4.us, high quality and excellent price (the people's favorite kind laptop batteries).
3. Waste batteries and "original batteries" gave as a gift when buying laptop, usually only stand 2 hours or less. Because these two kinds batteries capacity failed to reach the nominal capacity of standby time. So it is the worst laptop battery (Dell Inspiron 6000 Battery).
4. The replacement battery between 60$-100$ in the market. The battery can standby for 3-4 hours as original battery. But after used abour 10-12 months. The battery capacity reduced a lot or even scrapped. Although it can achieve the nominal capacity and the same standby time as original battery. But the other properties of the battery such as the battery charge and discharge times, the battery anti-aging properties simply can not up to standard. So it can only use 10-12 months.

Most of the 3-6 warranty months warrany "Original battery" and "OEM Dell XPS M140 Battery " on the market are made of neutral batteries: It achieve the use of nominal time, but it is difficult to achieve the standard charge and discharge times, battery aging fast, average life between 3-6 months. (so they can only guarantee the battery up to six months).

In the end if you want to buy the high quality cheap price battery, just buy the 1 year warranty battery replacement in http://www.battery4.us/. Do not buy the "6 month or less warranty Original battery" in Ebay. As I know I saw many "original sony VGP-BPS8 VGP-BPS9 battery" in Ebay.
