Need New Dell D820 Laptop Battery:

I have a Dell Latitude D820 laptop (circa 2006) and need to replace my CF623 rechargeable Li-ion battery, which is rated at 11.1Vdc with a capacity of 85Wh (though I don’t know what these numbers mean).

Checking online, I see a w-i-d-e range of new battery prices. Why such a difference?

What's my best strategy for making an intelligent, cost-conscious choice?

Thanks.
 
Your best bet would be to go straight to Dell to get a replacement battery. You might be paying more for it but you know for sure it will work.
 
OK, I obtained a Model LBDED820HM 9-cell Battery CF711 312-0386 312-0394 312-0402 CF623 DF192 for Dell D820 D531 M65 from www.usbphoneworld.com. Specs include: Li-ion 11.1V, 9 cell and 85 Wh. What’s your take on the quality of this battery and what kind of performance can I expect?

Through phone service, it seems the battery itself was not the only problem. The service guy asked if the new battery worked in my Latitude D820. It did. He then asked me to take out the new battery and plug in the ac adapter. No response. Nothing. Apparently the ac adapter had also died. So I ordered a new one from the same vendor and it’s due any day now.

Now I’m wondering if the ac adapter was the only problem all along. Perhaps there is still life in the old battery. If so, will the new battery “keep” while I use the old one as long as there is life? Comments.

Thanks.
 
You might have an issue with the electrical charging system in the laptop, like the power port could be bad or something else. when you get the new power adapter let us know if it works while the battery is out and see if it charges the battery.
