I got an unofficial battery for my ancient HP pavillion dv1000 laptop. The backup time is about 2.5 hours with moderate CPU load and about 1.5-2 hours with heavy cpu load. The cost of the battery was Rs.3200 and capacity as 4400mAh. The original battery cost was Rs.4.8k .. seems like the Topic Starter got a good deal, do update us with your backup time after 6 months!

ohh no i think u got it at steep price..........how can there be so much less difference in a Chinese and original battery.............i was getting 1600 quote for a Chinese battery for my hp pavilion dv5 1002 au model and if i am right you have atleast same model no battery if not the same laptop model.

but instead i decided to go for a 625 va microtek ups for 1650 rupee ..........:stop: before u say anything lemme tell you , my laptop is used as desktop , never carried it outside ever:iomg:.so it was a sensible thing to do, i didnt want to ruin my laptop so didnt go for Chinese battery........................ mine is amd processor laptop and yours???

Is it? hmm... only time will tell if it is worth the trouble. I get good backup and unlike my old original battery, it doesn't get "stunned" when there is a power failure and force the laptop to sleep.

I use it as a portable desktop. Mine is intel core solo 1.87Ghz(model: T1350). I use at my college hostel and at my home. But it stays stationary at both the places as I have lot of accessories plugged into the laptop(USB speaker, Phone as modem, portable hard disk, wireless mouse, USB keyboard) :D I get power supply interruptions infrequently, lasting upto 1:00 hours.

You used an UPS? well, since laptops usually consumes 2-4 times less power than a PC, your UPS battery will have a longer life and longer backup. . .

----------

Just don't allow the depth of discharge of the UPS battery to be more than 80%, prefreably keep it 50%.. you will get longer life.
