Battery information?

[Just_Ron]

Hello everyone,

I am a new owner of a HP laptop (15-dy0013dx) touchscreen with a core i5 8265U on windows 10.

I literally buy a new laptop every decade (and still own the last two) and because I know I'll have it a while I like to already know ahead of time how to do the periodic maintenance on the machine. I know I'm going to use at least 2 batteries during the service life of this machine but I'm having a very difficult finding any information about it and do not want to split the case with it being a brand new laptop still under warranty. Does anyone know what the HP part number is for this machine (15-dy0015dx)? I've messaged hp via facebook, used the virtual assistant and used the parts guilder to no avail. I've attempt to use the hp.com web form to message them an inquiry and it keeps being kicked out by the site. I cannot even find a reference with 3rd party vendors. Also, Is anyone familiar with the process to access the battery in this machine? I'm sure it's similar to opening a cell phone once the the 2 screws are out but if there is a write up I haven't yet seen it would be helpful. Otherwise this seems like a great piece of hardware. Acts very friendly with linux distro's in Virtual box but OSX doesn't play well virtually with the hardware of this machine (for anyone interested).

TL:DR. I just need the battery part number for laptop 15-dy0013dx and access to a write up on machine disassembly would be a bonus.

Battery (3 cell, 41 Wh) L11119-855

Pages 28-30 cover the procedure to replace the battery. Be careful with the rubber strips. Easy to stretch them out so they do not fit back in the channels. 

You likely will not need to worry about the battery for a couple or 3 years. But I like to have the service manual handy just in case. 

I am a vintage laptop collector. What 20 year old laptop do you have? 

Post back with any other questions and please accept as solution if this is the help you needed.

Thanks a lot Huffer. That's actually the info and service guide I was looking for.

I suppose it's not actually 20 years old just yet since it came with XP as a OEM OS but I'll list them oldest to most recent.

- IBM R40 (27226YU), Pentium M @1300 mhz, 1GB PC2100, 80GB HDD, Dual boot (XP sp3, 7 ultimate), 07/2003

- IBM X60 (6364ADU),Core 2 duo L2500 @ 1.83GHz, 2GB PC5300, 160GB HDD, Win 7 ultimate build 6.1.7600, 01/2007

- Emachines D520,  Celeron 575 @ 2GHz, 3GB PC5300, 160GB HDD, Win 10 Pro build 10.0.10240, 09/2008

- Apple Imac A1312, i5-2500s @ 2.7GHz, 4GB PC3-10600, 250GB HDD, OSX 10.7.5 and Win 7 on Bootcamp, 05/2011

- This Laptop I've asked the battery question about, 10/2019.

So I suppose it's more accurate to say I purchase a PC every 10 years but I do acquire orphans occasionally. I tend to play with other operating systems quite a bit so the software changes regularly with the older three. I won't play with the new one until the warranty expires. 

Thank you again for your assistance. I usually replace batteries annually or bi-annually. I tend to keep them plugged in a lot and the batteries do not get cycled often. I use laptops because they are mobile, not because I lack power where I move them to. Apparently they don't care much for that, haha.

Take care,

Ron
