Compaq 1600-XL144 Battery
Your Compaq 1600-XL144 battery makes your laptop portable so as to work or play where you want. Buying a battery with a higher milliamp rating is fine, as it just means the battery will last longer. What is truly important is the connection type and physical size of the battery. More amps in a battery basically means the longer it will last when fully charged. Not all batteries are the same, make sure and double-check the part number of the new battery and compare it to the old one.
General indicators that your Compaq battery is in dire need of a replacement
- The laptop lasts way less than it used to while using the battery only
- The laptop does not turn on when it is unplugged
- The laptop battery gets puffy and looks like it will explode
