Where to get replacement SP04XL Battery for HP Spectre x360

[Hannoc]

The  SP04XL Battery in my HP Spectre x360 -13-ap0090ca  needs the be replaced, I have removed it as 3 of the 4 cells have puffed up.

I can not find a replacement battery on the HP store.

There are a lot of aftermarket batteries but I haven't  found a decent one, even the "original" batteries on ebay seem suspect. 

Any that I have found that seem good do not ship to Canada.

Does anyone know where I can get a good quality original or aftermarket battery?

@Hannoc,

Welcome to our HP Community forum!

The part number for a replacement battery for your HP Spectre x360 - 13-ap0090ca (5FP13UA) is: L28764-005 "Battery 4C 61Wh 3.99Ah LI SP04XL".

You can purchase a quality SP04XL replacement battery via Amazon-Canada, such as this purchase option: https://www.amazon.ca/SP04XL-13-ap0013dx-13-ap0023dx-HSTNN-OB1B-HSTNN-IB8R/dp/B0DHXMGB9F/ref=sr_1_3?....

Thanks for your response.

This battery looks like all the other aftermarket batteries on amazon that have questionable reviews, any that have more then a few review have way too many 1 star reviews saying things like cells fail quickly or don't work at all, and this one has no reviews. 

To me it looks like these sellers wait until they get too many poor reviews then just repost the battery under a different brand name. 

Have you used this brand before?

@Hannoc,

I understand your reservations.  As a matter of fact, I fully share them.

However, since HP doesn't manufacture, stock and sell this part number (L28764-005) anymore ("The following part(s) you entered were not found or not orderable:<BR>L28764-005&nbsp;&nbsp;(Part is not orderable, HP Part Resellers may help.)"), we are left with whatever we can buy online, such as the Amazon-Canada part link I referenced.
