Battery dead; out of support coverage; looking for compatible alternative

[CheyneM]

Greetings!

I have an HP Notebook - 15-da0014dx whose battery recently died. I went to purchase a replacement only to discover that my laptop's battery isn't available through HP anymore; apparently five years old is too old to still be supported by HP. I was wondering whether there's another battery on the market that would be compatible with my laptop; I'd much prefer to keep it going than buy a new computer. Also open to alternative suggestions. Thanks!

This was perfect, I installed the battery a couple weeks ago and it's performing great! I also feel confident now that if I need to replace anything else in the future, I will know how to figure out what to buy and where to find it (so glad I was wrong about my laptop no longer being supported by HP). Thank you so much for this detailed reply! 🙏

You're very welcome.

Glad to have been of assistance.

Now that you have gained valuable experience and confidence in taking the notebook apart, if you ever want to install a larger capacity drive, you can replace the 128 GB SATA M.2 SSD with a faster performing M.2 NVMe SSD with a greater storage capacity such as 500 GB.

...And bump up the memory to 16 GB by removing the 4 GB DDR4-2400 memory chip with an 8 GB DDR4 memory chip so that you have 16 GB of memory running in dual channel mode.

Right now, the memory runs in the lower performing single channel mode due to the mismatched memory capacities.
