HP/Compaq :: HP 12-Cell BatteryHow Long Before You Need To Recharge
Sep 24, 2009For those of you who are using the 12 cell battery, how long did your battery initially last when you first got it -- and now, how does its battery life compare to how long it lasted in the beginning?
I have an HP dv5t that I bought 9 months ago. I was kind of disappointed that I only got about 3 1/2 hours from it, and now, after the 9 months, it's down to 3 hours.
I keep it plugged into my laptop at all times, even when not in use, because I like the fact that it lifts up the machine a bit, and helps with cooling. I don’t use the battery that often, (just mainly when I’m traveling). But I do make sure that I fully discharge it (use it) about once a week – as has been recommended by many posters.
So, what’s your experience with the 12 cell battery?
Dell :: Are The E6400 Volume Buttons Supposed To Light Up?

Feb 20, 2009I have an XPS m1330 (T7500, 3 GB RAM, 8400M GS GPU) and had a bad 6-cell battery that wasn't holding charge.
Dell sent me a replacement, but they've sent me a 9-cell which I don't want b/c it's heavy, adds bulk and most importantly, the angle on the laptop REALLY hurts my wrists... but apparently they won't send out 6-cells as replacements anymore, just 9-cells.
I'm wondering if there's anything I can tell them to get them to send me a 6-cell without having to put my 9-cell on ebay or something .....
Lenovo E530 11e E/Edge :: What Is Express Cache Supposed To Do
Sep 19, 2013I have E530 with 1TB disk and 16GB mSSD disk, which is partioned in 2 partitions. Now, I suspect Express Cache is using it somtimes, but I never see any usage from it in Task Manager. Task Manager Screengrab.However, sometimes Express Cache goes nuts on my HD, doing the opposite of what it is supposed to be doing Resource Monitor Showing Express Cache thrashing my HD
Â
However, it seems to be doing something, sometime. I suspect it is from rebooting, but I rarely reboot my computer, so I'm not gaining much from it. I just formatted that mSATA drive and perhaps put the windows swap file and perhaps other cache folders there? I always feel that the disk I/O is the bottleneck of this computer, it feels slow when accessing the disk.
Dell :: 6 Cell Vs. 9 Cell Battery On The Studio 1555
May 10, 2009I'm looking to get the Studio 1555 and the only thing I'm not sure on right now is which battery to get.
Is it true that the 9 cell sticks out the bottom a little bit? I would just go for the 9 cell, but I use my current laptop on my lap a lot and I'm worried that if the battery sticks out the bottom it would be uncomfortable since the laptop would be resting on two points rather than the entire bottom

Sep 30, 2009I have a Dell Inspiron 6000 for about 4 years almost. I have 512MB but am going to buy the 2GB ram from newegg because it is very slow.
I am also formating my laptop as well as my desktop. Most of the time i use my desktop but for my laptop i bought a charger that was CHEAP and i think it messed up my battery life a bit.
I just purchased a new charger from Dell and will throw away the bad charger i have.
My battery life in my 6000 is about 40 minutes. It used to be 2 hours and 30 minutes when i first got it. A few months ago it was actually 1 hour and 20 minutes. My neighbor has a e1505 and his battery lasts like 5 minutes now so all he does is use his charger.
I see on Ebay from reputable sellers that the 6 and 9 cell battery price is pretty close. 6 Cell is about 44 dollars and 9 Cell is about 48 dollars.
6 Cell one

Dell :: Inspiron Should I Go For 6 Cell Or 9 Cell Battery
Dec 12, 2008i am having a hard time deciding my configuration for a inspiron 13"
i noticed that the Refurbished laptop have a Great price $609, 2.0 intel core 2 duo,4gb,320gb,6cell,Dell 1395 802.11G Wireless Mini Card.
For that price it seems to good to be truth, but i have no experience with refurbished laptop.
What is causing me confusion is, if i should go for a new laptop that has ,2.0ghz(same cpu), 3gb,250gb,intel next gen wireless N, 9 cell battery
for $779, all because the $10 for the wireless and 70$ for the battery
and it has a 195$ discount already of the original price.

View 5 Replies View RelatedHP/Compaq :: Dv6000- New Battery -- 6 Cell Or 12 Cell
Feb 13, 2010I have an HP Pavilion dv6000. When I purchased the laptop, I chose a 12 cell battery, and it has a sticker on it that states: Replace with 451864-001. My battery went bad, and I purchased a replacement at the HP Parts Store online. I specifically chose a 12 cell replacement, which brought up the same part number, i.e., 451864-001. However, when it came in the mail today, the battery looks like a 6 cell, as it's about 1/3 the size of the old 12 cell, despite my purchase receipt which states that I ordered a 12 cell and the packing slip which also states that HP shipped a 12 cell. The model number of the old battery is HSTNN-DB32, and the model number of the new battery is HSTNN-DB46. Unless they were able to shrink the 12 cell to make it resemble a 6 cell, I'm pretty sure I received a 6 cell, despite the notations in the purchase order and packing slip.
This is a long way of asking, is there a tool that I can install that will tell me how many cells are contained in the battery? The battery, itself, does not state how many cells it contains. If it is a 6 cell, as I suspect, HP will be getting it back.
HP/Compaq :: HP 2530P6 Cell Vs 9 Cell Battery
Dec 4, 2009Couple of questions:
1. Does the 9 cell PROTUDE out the back and is it thicker than the normal 6 cell?
Would love to see a photo comparing both if possible.
2. Practically, in terms of percentage, how much more run time? 50%? 60%?
3. How much more weight?

Nov 9, 2009I am planning to buy a dell vostro 1520 laptop but I am not sure if I can go for a 6 cell or 9 cell battery.
Will the laptop be projected at the back side if it is loaded with a 9 cell battery? Mine is 240v input current so should I go for a 65w ac adapter or a 90w ac adapter?
Can I go for a 6 cell battery with 90w adapter or a 6 cell battery with 65w adapter? could anyone plz give me comparision?
Dell :: 6 Cell Vs 9 Cell
Oct 1, 2009I know there's a topic on the first page asking about the battery, but it's a different question.
I'm planning to buy either Inspiron or Studio, they are pretty similar price and spec wise.
I want to get a 9 cell battery, but from what I heard/read, it sticks out/protrudes from the laptop, making it what I would find quite unpleasant.
I'm planning to get a 14 or 15 inch, if that has any influence on the answer. (i'm assuming it does, since a smaller laptop would have more chance to have the battery stick out, cause it's smaller, and can't contain the battery within the unit)

Dell :: How Long For An Exchange From?
Aug 23, 2009For those of you who have had a faulty laptop and had it exchanged could you let me know how long it takes?
I purchased a Dell Mini 10v from the outlet well over a month ago. It arrived July 14 and was faulty straight out of the box (crackling, hissing noise). It was sent to the depot, returned several days later,
and when I turned it on the same problem was still there. It's some problem with the speakers not working properly. I call Dell again. The laptop was sent to the depot a second time--it just got returned a couple days ago .....
Dell :: Work In Progress What Does This Mean & How Long Will It Take?

Dell says:
Work In Progress
If you personalized your computer, it's being prepared for production.If you ordered an accessory, software or ink, your order is being prepared for packing.
Does this mean they are making it? Or does it mean its getting all the stuff (e.g hard drive) to make it?

Dell :: How Long Have You Had/will You Keep Your Laptop? (POLL)
Aug 16, 2009I'm just starting my 5th year with my Inspiron 6000. Bought it in August 2005 for just under $800 out the door.
I was planning on buying a new one but I realized that everything in that price range these days isn't really a huge improvement over what I already have, and since the thing still works, there's really no need to upgrade.
I have had to make a few fixes over the years (upgraded HD, RAM, new keyboard, screen/inverter, battery, top bezel, power jack, power adapter) but at this point it's almost a matter of pride to be able to fix something for $15 or $20 by just buying the part on eBay and maybe spending 30-60 minutes with a screwdriver.

Dec 14, 2009For all you M1530 owners, how long have you had it for and is the 'defective' GPU still working fine?
For those that had the M1530 or had it replaced, how long did the GPU last before it died?
Also, please mention whether you undervolt/undervolted your CPU and use/used a notebook cooler as I think this would affect the life of it.
Had mine since April '08 and the current motherboard since December '08. Undervolted CPU and notebook cooler. Still working perfectly.
These questions are relevant to my big question here:
XPS M1530 - Keep or Sell?
The poll is just for summaries sake but an actual response with the details would be appreciated. Also, the poll is only for M1530's you bought new. i.e. not refurbished, second hand.

Dell Vostro 3400 :: Getting Very Hot After Long Usage
Jan 8, 2013I have a Dell Vostro 3400 laptop that since some months ago is getting very hot after long usage.
I work with this laptop so it is usually powered up all day long.
I always keep the laptop placed on a fan basement that has 3 fans working all the time.
Well... since some days ago, laptop suddenly shuts down powering itself off. When that happen, I place the palm of my hand touching the keyboard and without lying, my hand burns. So I think this is the reason why the laptop shuts down, and I cannot power up again until some period has passed.
Why may be the reason of this heat? hardware problem? how can I diagnose it?
