Can I replace the battery of my laptop? If so, where can I find one?

I've had my Acer Aspire M5-481PTG laptop for about 3 years now so the battery life is kinda short. It only lasts about 2 to 2 1/2 hours. It used to last like 6-7 hours when fully charged. Where can I find a replacement for my battery?

Hi there! So I started by visiting this website http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/drivers and went throught the documentation of the laptop to pinpoint the battery product model number. Aspire M3 and M5 series use the same kind of battery. From my understanding, the battery model number AP12A3i is best suited for your laptop. You can view the battery in this link http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Genuine-Original-Battery-For-Acer-Aspire-Timeline-M3-M5-AP12A3i-AP12A4i-3ICP7-67-90-KT-00303/1944469225.html And remember, anytime just google ap12a3i battery and you should be able to find a convenient store! I very much hope this would help and if it does, dont forget to give a kudo and mark this as a solution!

    Your one-year warranty includes replacement coverage for a defective battery. You can extend your coverage to two years from the date of your iPad purchase with the AppleCare Protection Plan for iPad. During the plan’s coverage period, Apple will replace the battery if it drops below 50% of its original capacity. If it is out of warranty, Apple offers a battery replacement for $99, plus $6.95 shipping, subject to local tax. Apple disposes of your battery in an environmentally friendly manner.

    Marble,
    Welcome to the HP Forum.
    Yes, you can replace the battery.
    You want to check the battery first -- and make sure the issue is not a faulty or weak charger / AC adapter.
    The following will help with both concerns:
    Testing and Calibrating the Battery (Windows 7)
    Testing and Using the AC Power Adapter
    Be sure, when and if you do buy a batter and / or a new AC adapter that you buy for quality and not for price.
    Be very careful of cheap knock-off brands sold online:  just because the name of the website has the word 'hp' in it, the product they are selling you might be a cheap, poorly made, apt to blow up, piece of junk.
    If you want to be sure the product you buy is made for your computer, buy the HP product for your computer.

  • Satellite L300 - Can I replace the battery?

    Hello,
    I need your help. I have a Toshiba Satellite L300 and I have a problem with the battery, it discharges in a short period. The battery model no. is pa3534u-1brs. I wonder if I can replace this battery with other one that lasts more than 2 hours.
    Do you know any thing about that?
    Can you help?
    Thanx in advance.

    Hi
    Of course you can replace the battery Why not?
    You can replace the battery with the same one or another one that is compatible with your notebook.
    I would recommend contacting your local authorized service provider. The technicians recommend a battery to you.
    Alternative you search on the Toshiba page for compatible batteries. Just few clicks you have to make! ;)

  • Can I replace the battery on my ipad? original Ipad owner awaiting Ipad 3

    I wan just wondering if I can replace my Ipad's battery, possibly with a stronger battery. I am going on a trip to burma. I will be flying from dallas to LA, LA to Tokyo, Tokyo to Singapore, Singapore to Burma. When I went to Laos last summer I took the same rout except I went from singapore to malaysia then laos, I eventually lost power once in singapore. Is there anyway, since i will try and access the internet on the plane, and will be watching movies, that i can obtain a more powerful battery besides a portable charger. Also if can I turn my cellular data on to access the internet on the airplane?

    The battery is not officially user replaceable, and no stronger internal battery would be possible in any case (Apple packs in as much battery capacity as is technically possible). There are external battery packs available; do a web search for "ipad external battery" and you'll find them.
    if can I turn my cellular data on to access the internet on the airplane?
    Probably not. Most airlines prohibit use of any cell technology while in flight, and even if it were allowed, during most flights you'll be well out of range of any cell transmitter, so only if the flight provided such a service would it be possible. Some airlines offer WiFi service on flights, though; check with your airline.
    Regards.

  • Can you replace the battery on a IPad?

    I have an IPad 2 and the battery charge is not holding up well anymore and I was wondering what my options are or if I can have the battery replaced.

    Take it to an Apple Store.
    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.

    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
    1. iResq or Google for others.
    2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit
