I need to replace the battery in the HP Spectre X360? Is there any available from HP? Does anyone know of a reliable retailer to buy it from?

Hi,

Thanks for the help. Seems you were correct on the part number. I just got an email from HP support. 

I found a seller on eBay.

Hello Aztony,

I'm also looking for a good source to buy the same battery. Was your experience with the seller on eBay good?

If yes, can you share the name or purchase link?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, I had a very good experience with the seller, and the battery is working fine so far.  This is the link to the item I purchased but it is no longer available from the seller:

Here is another seller I found with an excellent rating selling the battery:

The only issue I had was that I needed to buy a screwdriver kit to remove the back of the laptop. This is the kit I purchased from Amazon:

Amazon.com: SHARDEN 58 in 1 Small Precision Screwdriver Set Magnetic Mini Screwdriver Set with Case ...

It's an okay kit. It does seem cheaply made, but it worked.
