Removable battery

[How-2beordinary]

Hello there,
Can the battery of this make _HP Pavilion Laptop 15-eg3002nx (8F1M8EA)_ be removed so that I can keep the laptop plugged and powered as in old laptops? working time up to 10 hours.
Is it safe and easy to remove it? Will this action affect the other hardware?

Someone has mentioned that HP laptop has a BIOS setting to limit battery charging level to 80% of the maximum to preserve battery life. Is this setting included on this laptop?

Hi:

The notebook does not have a setting to limit the battery charging to 80%.

You can remove the battery, but it is not very easy to do so.

You have to remove the bottom cover of the notebook.

With the battery removed, the notebook will not be able to keep the BIOS and system clock settings and every time you turn it on after shutting it down for the day, you will get a CMOS 502 checksum error that you will have to clear and restart the notebook.

Below is the link to the service manual.

I'm thinking if you don't leave the notebook plugged into A/C power 24/7/365 you should be OK.

It's leaving the battery in a constant 100% charge state that may cause damage to the battery such as swelling.

• You mean it'k ok to keep it plugged inngor about 11- 12  hours a day?! 

I can't recharge battery a couple of times a day.

Are there any  models with removable batteries?! 

Thank you very much for the reply.

You should be able to.

Unplug it after you use it for the last time of the day,

There are no notebooks made in the last several years that I know of that have removable external batteries, no matter who makes them.
