My battery life sucks on my laptop… Id like to get one that will actually last a bit, when i first got this computer the battery would last roughly 2-3hours no problem… Id like to be able to get the same life if not better Its an HP dv2000 and the battery replacement number is 441611-001 Which replacement is going to be worth a damn? Please direct me… Thanks ---

Looks like your stock battery is a 6 cell 4400 mah. You could go to a 12 cell 8800 mah battery which would last considerably longer.

EDIT: is the 12 cell always going to be much thicker than the oem battery?

Yes the more cells, the thicker the battery is… This has been the case in my experience. ---

EDIT: time varies but watch out on eBay some sellers are trying to pass off a 6 cell as a 12 cell. ---

Yeah the 12 cell will give you a noticeable hump on the bottom and put the keyboard at an angle. ---

nope… recall is expired. i’ll double check the part # on mine tomorrow (it’s @ my shop) PM me a shipping address and i’ll put it in a padded envelope and UPS it, we’re a shipping location too. buy me a RedBull when you’re in town next, and maybe a HJ if no one’s looking. ---

The salesman at staples tried to tell me that laptop batteries are designed to outlast you laptop itself. I really find that hard to believe considering all I have trouble with is my laptop batteries. ---
