Battery has expanded

[Manatee_Man]

My HP Spectre x360 model 13-aw0023dx is about 2.5 years old. The battery has expanded and stripped the screw holes holding the back onto the machine. I need a new battery. I'm using electrical tape to hold the back onto the machine. What battery does HP recommend I get so this problem doesn't recur?

I'm concerned that the OEM battery only lasted 2+ years. Please advise whether that's normal. I'd like an extended warranty for a replacement battery. The suggested battery only has 2 reviews and no warranty info. Is there a battery with an extended warranty available?

@Manatee_Man,

Quite often the replacement batteries exceed the original specs.

Please be advised that OEM HP L60373-005 batteries are out of stock and "EOL" (End of Life) designated and no longer manufactured.

In terms of warranty, the very best you are going to get/find anywhere is 90 days.
