How long does a laptop battery last before replacement?
It depends on the battery and how you use the laptop. Replace it when it no longer holds enough charge for your day, or when the system warns about battery health.

Tell us about your problem
Is your laptop or notebook battery draining too fast? Or maybe it is not charging at all? Reach out to us through either of our convenient service options: In-Store or Mail-In. If the laptop does not charge at all, the cause may be the charger or the power jack, not the battery.
We can fix your Laptop Battery
When you come in, we will run a diagnostic to ascertain that your battery is really faulty and you need to get a replacement battery for your laptop.
It’s a sign that your laptop has a battery problem when:
- When unplugged, the battery life expires quickly.
- The battery or PC consistently overheats.
- The battery is not charging.
- The laptop will not turn on.
- The battery is swollen or the case bulges. Stop using the laptop and bring it in.
Then we take the following steps to fix your battery:
- First, we’ll figure out what kind of battery your laptop needs and quote the replacement. Nothing is replaced without your yes.
- If the correct battery is in stock, we can begin the installation. Otherwise, we order the battery and tell you when it arrives.
- Finally, we’ll test your new battery’s operation and notify you when it’s ready for pickup.

FAQ
Is it worth replacing a laptop battery?
If your computer is less than two years old and you're having battery problems, changing the battery is more cost-effective than replacing the laptop. There's no need to replace the laptop battery if you're fine with using it plugged in more than usual.
What happens if I don't replace my laptop battery?
As long as the power source and the outlet are connected to the laptop, it can still be used even if the battery is not there. However, if the plug comes loose in any way, even slightly, your machine will shut down, and it may even cause damage to the files and the operating system.
What to look for in a replacement laptop battery?
When shopping for a new battery for your laptop, there are a few important considerations you need to give attention to, including:
- Examining a range of prices as well as the specifics of any warranties
- Searching the internet for verified third-party vendors
- Ensuring that the battery meets the specs and matches the required voltage
- Think about going for a higher battery capacity, if one fits your model
