Dell Inspiron 5160 Battery
Your Dell Inspiron 5160 battery allows you to move freely about so as to work or play where you want. Because no battery is the same, make sure and double-check the part number of the new battery and compare it to the one you are going to replace. The larger the battery, the longer you will be able to use the laptop when fully charged. It is OK to buy a battery with more milliamps, as it signifies that the battery can last for a longer period of time on one charge. What really is critical to a battery fitting your laptop is the actual size of the battery and the connection it has.
Subtle cues to watch for in a failing li-ion battery
- The battery has its case swollen like its about to burst
- The unit is unable to boot up when it is not plugged in
- The laptop lasts under ten minutes while unplugged
