Long lasting but couple issues - The battery fits my D820 fine, although as several reviewers have pointed out is not a tight fit. I had the same issue a few report of the battery not charging fully at first (~85%), after several cycles it gradually increased and now fully charges most of the time (sometimes stops at ~98% and stays there if plugged in). A more annoying issue is that the battery will usually not charge when in the laptop and then plugged in when it is low. I usually have to pop it out and reset it for the charging to work. I don t think this is due to the slightly loose fit as one reviewer suggested but that the battery doesn t sync with the laptop like a Dell battery does. It does last over 3 hrs so if you can deal with the annoyance of taking it out and replacing for charging to start, it works fine for the price.
Replacement battery for Dell Laptop - The product was delivered in a timely manner, was as advertised and has been working very well for several weeks. Cost was a less than half of the manufacturers replacement and appears to be working as well if not better.
Piece of Garbage - Please look elsewhere - This battery, while appearing to be the same size as the Dell original, is just a few millimeters off. As a result, my battery rarely charges. The battery can be docked, but the metal connectors in the battery are not (sufficiently) touching the pins in the system to charge the battery.To resolve, I have to do everything from jiggling the battery to completely removing & resetting it. Even then the problem is not guaranteed to go away.Finally, the battery has never charged fully. When the charge is working , it always seems to quit around the 90% area.Since I ve had my new battery, I ve been running on A/C most of the time, but I am dreading my next trip when I longer have an outlet to plug into.
Works - It fit. It charged. It has a charge indicator on the bottom just like the Dell OEM battery. So far so good. This battery feels significantly lighter than the original Dell battery, which may end up translating in to less capacity, but given the amount of money saved, I could buy 2 Lenmar batteries and still be cheaper than buying one Dell OEM battery.
Great Battery, Great Price - This battery is great. Fits my laptop perfectly, has twice the life of the original Dell battery, and was 1/3rd the price of the Dell battery.
