Yeah, maybe according to the upgrade schedule the salesman wants you to follow of a new laptop every 1 to 1.5 years.

a lot of the replacement batteries on ebay that are generic only last about 1 year before they start shitting the bed again. i broke off my laptop charge A/C adapter thing, and i bought a new one off ebay for like 20bucks, it last about 2 weeks, and it just stopped working, it would also wiggle around in the input. i ended up buying the 90$ HP one from best buy and i havent had trouble since.

if you ever have to buy a new charger, i would say get an oem one

it’s an aftermarket battery, worked solid when it was in use for the few weeks before the whole laptop shit the bed. been dormant for a few months so if when you get it check to make sure it holds a charge before you get too excited. if it’s junk, pitch it in the trash and continue on.

yeah that seems to be reasonable, is it a factory hp battery or an aftermarket replacement?
