THANK YOU so much for a very clear, step-by-step video, especially for the close-ups of the battery and wiring. Following your instructions, I opened my Lenovo laptop and successfully replaced the battery. I did it, thanks to you!
Holy power hour. Thanks for this clear, verbal and visual walk-through. So much more clear than the 6 videos RUclips presented to me first with blaring music and no actual instruction, precautions or anything else valuable. Definite thumbs up!
6:20 Thank you so much my friend, I did not know how to disconnect the battery connector, I have a very similar one to yours. Using the plastic tool with a fine flat edge worked perfectly. Thank you!!
Thank you for keeping things simple and visually helpful. I was losing my mind looking at picture by picture explanations online. Another youtube video was unhelpful and then I found you. Cheers.
OMG Thank you!!! i know nothing about computers and mine was much different from yours but i just took the ram out “the only piece i could identify other than the big black battery” and it worked!!!!!!
Thank you soooo much for the way you broke everything down. Video was the most helpful out of the ones I saw prior to finding you. Definitely gained a new subscriber.
Thank you so so much. You just saved my laptop. It had a black screen and I wanted to take out the battery and had no idea how. This video was very detailed and easy to follow. Thank you so much for saving my new laptop.
A really informative and carefully constructed guide. Well paced and well spoken Great advice as to how not to cause damage when disassembling a complex item. Bravo
Thank you sir bahut help Kiya apki video ne mai toh Darr Gaya tha ki 3-4k ka minimum kharcha ayega abhi Bach Gaya yaar ram ko dusre slot me dala saaf karke theek hogya❤❤🙏
I know this is a late reply, but just in case, you would need to wiggle it out as you pull. You can do it by hand if you have a good grip. You can also use some plastic tool to pull on each side alternatively til it loosens and comes out. Don't be afraid, but just don't pull hard.
Do you need to first discharge the battery? Also when you get the new one hooked up do you need to immediately charge it and then discharge it or anything of that nature?
@@wademaccloud9207 I did for a whole 2 months during summer (so much more likely to overheat), and I put more stress on the system than ever before with many different things like gaming, video editing... And I had no problem at all. Still, I have heard it is better to take it out if you're not going to use the battery for longer than 1 month😅
HP laptop is giving me a battery replacement message through the HP Support Assistant program. Internal testing shows 21% of full charge capacity remaining. I'm only using the laptop always plugged into AC at home. Wondering if I ignore the replacement message will inhibit any functionality of the laptop. Did not see your link to the "no battery" option. Good video!
I'm here bc the Computer store tried to charge me $50 to do this. I asked if I can just change the battery myself? (didn't realize it's not like the older laptops). I paid the fee, but hey, electronics don't last as long as humans do, I'll have to change a battery again someday; might as well learn now for next time 🤷🏾♀
Hello josh, I want to know Can we use a laptop while it is charging? I have searched it but i dont feel much confident about other answers so would be great to know from you whether we can use laptop while charging or not. 😀
Yes there is no issue with this - that is how they are designed! The only issue with using a laptop while charging is basically if you ALWAYS have it plugged in and just use it in the same place on your desk everyday then you will be degrading the battery without actually making use of the battery. The only way around this is to remove the laptop battery completely but this isn't usually a practical solution.
I have a worry. If you buy now a laptop (modern, with internal battery) - can you find replacement battery 100% compatible ? (These batteries most probably have different specs + dimensions + maybe attached circuit) Now + what about in 5 years? (I'm assuming battery will degrade quite a bit & you might want to replace it). How would you tackle this? Do Lenovo or X producer offer this service or can they sell just this component? Or solution is AliExpress or equivalent chinese site ?
I have that same worry. I've been using my laptop for 4.5 years and I don't think I'm gonna buy a new one soon, so I'm afraid I wouldn't find any parts for my laptop in the near future if i needed to replace them.
My Ideapad 330s 14kib comes with a two-cell 7.4v battery. can I upgrade it with a three-cell 11.1v battery? If yes, should I also upgrade the charging adapter? It comes with a 45-watt adapter. Any suggestion??
My battery has like a plastic and leather casing around it, it's weird, it's also the little paper things attached to the motherboard that I don't want to break. How do I remove something like that?
Hi, I have an actual HP battery not 3rd party battery that needs to be installed. I have not replaced it yet but when I do will the laptop just turn on and go straight to my login screen or will it need to setup? Thank you.
I think mine is bloated too cuz there's a very slight bulge on my keyboard near my spacebar. It's also about 3 years old and been plugged in most of the time. A google search and this video said it should run without a battery so I will have to do that for now since it's not a good idea to continue using bloated batteries. You just need to often save stuff like documents you're working on in case of power surges or outages. I also read that some components can get damaged without a battery but I forget how.
Thanks. But my laptop is not was was not turning on but when I plug it, it shows it is charging but still won’t turn on. I watched your video and took out the battery but still won’t turn on and won’t even show it is is charging when being plugged in. Can u please help me with a video
I did this now it won't turn on...blue led light is on tho...there are two...one is on...the one that shows its turned on stays on for 7 seconds and shuts off
Good morning, the circuit that charge my laptop battery got damage with water but laptop still working as long as the battery last. Is there a way to charge externally the battery? Is a hp RR03XL. Best regards.
so i replaced the battery on my HP laptop but it still won't turn on. what other issues could i possible be having? the power cord works on my daughters laptop so i know the cord is good. could it be the power supply unit?
I need a new battery for my Lenovo laptop, but the Lenovo website seems to not have any for purchase. Where are you guys buying your new laptop batteries? (I don't want to get it from Amazon)
Could u pls make a vid of why my game stutter and lag when I connected my charger to my laptop and get frame drops I try every method on yt pls help and make a vid
Well, let me take a guess on how that may happen... this might be the same thing as on a power bank I own... it's able to deliver about 2 amps as long as it's not being charged, but while it's being charged, it reduces the current going out. If the laptop does the same thing, this means it will try to use less power while plugged in in order to save some of the power to charge its battery, or in order not to produce too much heat... and if badly designed, it will even do this if the battery's already fully charged (like my power bank does it as well).
My DELL laptop( non- removable battery) does not turn on since it was struck by the sudden bursting of the transformer installed in our premises.However,when the charger is connected and removed instantly,the laptop blinks for a fraction of second(on the keyboard¬ on the screen)How to restore it?
Hi I just recently last month suddenly got the dead battery - only works when plugged in to the charger. I did an internal diagnostic which said the battery should be replaced (have had my laptop for nearly 3 years now). My new laptop battery has arrived - are you able to provide guidance on caring for the new battery to make it last longer? Should it be fully charged first before use? and then fully drained of charge each time before plugging in the charger?
My laptop just suddenly stopped charging, I went through all these steps, and it still won't charge. Is there any chance when reconnecting the battery into the motherboard that it didn't go all the way in or something? I'm pretty sure i got it in properly but idk what to do now. I have 0% charge so can't actually get on it to check drivers and stuff
My laptop turned off suddenly so I tried disconnecting the battery, holding the power button while it's plugged in then reconnecting and my laptop booted up fine after that but now my laptop won't charge no charging light, no power button light I have a Lenovo 130-15IKB any help?
Simply brilliant! 72 year old woman changed her own battery! You rocked that video!....thank you very much!
The idea of opening the case with a guitar pick is genius! Thanks man, this was truly a very helpful video

Being a guitarist, I loved the guitar pick used to take off the cover! Thank you for a very informative video!
This helps alot-. I broke my computer and need to take out the battery. I broke my computer by making a over powered mob farm in Minecraft
That doesn't make sense even tho its a joke.
Minecraft god
Relatable
What a madlad
Funny since I'm watching this in order to help upgrade my RAM... to play minecraft mods
Wow, I was so afraid to remove all the screws and take out the internal battery but I followed your instructions and it worked! Thank you!
Really descriptive video thank you! Its a little difficult detaching it from the motherboard but hopefully I get around it without too much damage!!
This video helped so much. I was afraid to do this on my own, and you have given me the confidence to do it.
OMG Thank you!!! i know nothing about computers and mine was much different from yours but i just took the ram out “the only piece i could identify other than the big black battery” and it worked!!!!!!
What a terrific video- well explained and visual aids - what 'not to do' was extremely helpful. Thanks
Thank you soooo much for the way you broke everything down. Video was the most helpful out of the ones I saw prior to finding you. Definitely gained a new subscriber.
I think it as advisable to take a few photographs after every operation you make. Wire routes etc.
Oh yes. Because I can take things apart, sure, but putting them back together is a different story...
Thank you so so much. You just saved my laptop. It had a black screen and I wanted to take out the battery and had no idea how. This video was very detailed and easy to follow. Thank you so much for saving my new laptop.
Clear useful instructions. And he didn't go off to answer the phone in the middle of it like another one I watched.
A really informative and carefully constructed guide. Well paced and well spoken Great advice as to how not to cause damage when disassembling a complex item. Bravo
Great video, made changing the battery in my work Lenovo simple, instead of having to submit an IT ticket that can take a few days
Thank you! You definitely saved my motherboard because i didnt realize the black plastic slid out from the metal casing 😅

my aunt was so impressed I changed out her battery. even cleaned some dust out of the fan, that baby's gonna work like a charm
JOOOSH!! Thankies for the video! I was just thinking when you'd make this video. Defo very useful.
You're welcome - glad it could help you!
Thanks a lot this video. I've managed to get my laptop back in life again.
Thank you! The info was exactly what I needed to change my battery.
Thanks so much for that thorough and clear explanation!
No matter how much I wiggle, the connector does not disconnect the way it does at 5:45
Others have massive issues with this too. One RUclipsr just pulls the cable by hand lol. Smfh
Thanks alot. This has helped me a lot. Very wel explained and very simple to understand.
Awesome instructions! I was able to remove battery safely!
Hi my wires that connects battery and motherboard are hard to pull. What should i do? I hope you'll notice this fast...
no ones video is covering this part, so annoying
@@boredguy5805 it's insane how a lot of ppl have this issue and so few ppl have answers!

Thank you so much my laptop was unresponsive for days and taking out the batter my and ram and plugging it back in fixed it

Is it possible to disconnect the battery but leave it in there, or are there any dangers like short-circuits, overheating....?
