Need help with genuine battery for my HP Pavilion Notebook 15-bc5xxx - Germany

[Gen_Pav]

Hi all,

I’m looking for a genuine replacement battery for my HP Pavilion Notebook 15-bc5xxx (exact submodel not listed in most online shops). The original battery has degraded significantly — it's showing only ~45% capacity left, and the cycle count is 1174/1000. I'm mostly using the laptop plugged in, but I still want a reliable battery in case of power outages or for occasional unplugged use.

A few things:

• Original specs: 63 Wh, 15.4 V, Design Voltage

• Battery IDs that show up: TF03XL, HSTNN-LB7X

• Many listings online (Cellonic, Green Cell, etc.) mention Pavilion 15-CC, CD, CK, etc. — but not 15-BC

• Some mention TF03XL batteries as compatible, but I’m unsure if that’s genuinely safe and BIOS-compatible with the bc5xxx series.

I'd really appreciate it if anyone with the same or similar model (15-bc5xx) could confirm:

• Which battery you used (part number, brand, Whr)?

• If you had any issues with BIOS errors, battery recognition, or runtime?

• Any trusted seller in Germany or the EU you’d recommend for OEM or high-quality third-party batteries?

Thanks in advance!
