Hi Sparkles1, thanks for your quick respond, really appreciate that,

i have learn more about my notebook from link you provided,

but i still cant find information about voltage of my battery..

is this product release with 2 kind of battery (14.8v and 10.8v) and will fit with any of those 2 kind voltage?

or my battery type is 14.8v and i have to replace it with exact 14.8v battery (which i couldn't find it until now..)?

or maybe my notebook come with wrong battery?

but it running well until now..

i hope you can answer my confusion..

Hi Zeamm,

Your replacement battery must match the specifications of the original. Before you replace your battery, have you tried to test and calibrate it?  Here is a link to assist you with that.Battery Does not Power Notebook or Hold a Charge.

The batteries appearance may vary by region, but the specifications will be the same. 

Your system is designed to work on a specific voltage, if you install a battery not recommended, it could have adverse affects.  

If you are in warranty or would like to purchase a replacement battery, please contact HP support.

Hi Zeamm,

I regret that you are having an issue, obtaining a battery. When I tried the usual HP part providers they are referring people to retailers. I have done some research and have located a site where you can purchase your battery. HPLaptopBattery.com.au.  If you google search HP part  506780-001, you will find more outlets. For your convenience here is the link Google search for HP part 506780-001.

The "au" after your model number refers to Australia as the area it was sold in. Please let me know if you still require assistance.
