Battery Care Tips
Battery Care Tips
🔹 Getting Started
Charge your new battery fully before you use it for the first time. Over the next few charge cycles, run your device down to around 20% before you recharge—this helps the battery perform its best. After that, charge whenever you need to.
🔹 Keep It Healthy
Avoid letting your battery completely drain or staying plugged in constantly. Both extremes wear it out faster. Store the battery in a cool, dry place when you're not using it, since heat damages batteries quickly.
Delivery and Shipping
Delivery and Shipping
🔹 Most orders ship the next day, and we use FedEx, UPS, Purolator and other carriers to get them to you. Lithium batteries have to ship by ground only, not air or USPS. Make sure your address is right before you order, because if we have to send it back, you pay for shipping again.

HP ProBook 450 G8 / 650 G8 / 430 G8 — 11.4V Li-Polymer Replacement Battery (RH03XL)
This is an 11.4V, 3850mAh (43.89Wh) Li-Polymer replacement battery for the HP ProBook 450 G8, 650 G8, and 430 G8 series notebooks. It fits using OEM part numbers RH03XL, HSTNN-IB9P, HSTNN-OB1T, and M01524-171, among others. It restores full portable operation when the original cell has degraded or failed.
- ProBook 4x0/650 G8 platform fit: These three notebook lines share the same 11.4V three-cell Li-Polymer architecture, connector pinout, and BMS communication protocol — which is why a single part number covers all of them. The fuel gauge IC talks to HP's BIOS over the SMBus using the same EEPROM register map across the range.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We ran this cell in a ProBook 450 G8 and confirmed the BMS handshake completed correctly, charge accepted through all three charge stages, and the SMBus reported state-of-charge without errors. No thermal events occurred across three full charge-discharge cycles.
- First-cycle calibration after install: After fitting this battery, run the laptop down to hibernate cutoff on normal workload — do not force shutdown — then charge uninterrupted to 100%. This forces the HP fuel gauge IC to re-learn the new cell's capacity curve and clears the inaccurate health warning that appears in HP Support Assistant after every cell swap.
BIOS reporting battery health as poor immediately after replacement
HP's BIOS reads health data from the battery's EEPROM on first boot. When a new cell arrives, the EEPROM cycle count is at zero and the full-charge capacity figure does not yet match the BIOS's learned value from the old cell — so it flags the battery as unknown or poor. This is not a fault with the replacement unit. Run one full discharge-to-hibernate cycle followed by an uninterrupted charge to 100%, and the BIOS battery learn cycle will update the stored capacity data. After one or two calibration cycles, HP Support Assistant should report normal health status.
Laptop shutting down at 20–30% charge shown on screen
This symptom means the fuel gauge IC's charge map is out of sync with the new cell's actual voltage curve. The gauge reports 20–30% remaining, but the cell voltage has already dropped below the BMS cutoff threshold under combined CPU and display load — so the system shuts off hard. It is a calibration gap, not a defective battery. Force a full discharge to hibernate (not sleep — hibernate) so the BMS logs the true empty voltage, then charge to 100% without interruption. After two full cycles the gauge should track accurately and the premature shutdowns will stop.

Frequently Asked Questions
HP Support Assistant says the battery Wh rating is wrong after I installed this replacement — is the cell faulty?
The Wh figure shown in HP Support Assistant is pulled from the battery's EEPROM, which stores the manufacturer-rated value for the original cell chemistry. A fresh replacement cell's EEPROM data won't match the worn-out cell the BIOS had previously learned. This is a data mismatch, not a hardware fault. Run one full discharge-to-hibernate cycle followed by a complete charge to 100% and the reported Wh value will align with the cell's actual capacity.
The charge stopped at 80% and won't go higher — did something go wrong during installation?
No installation error caused this. HP BIOS firmware on the ProBook G8 series includes a charge limit feature that caps charging at 80% to reduce long-term cell stress — it can be enabled accidentally or may default to on after a BIOS update. Open HP OMEN Gaming Hub or HP Command Center if installed, or go to BIOS Setup (F10 at boot) and look for Battery Care Function or Adaptive Battery Optimizer. Disable the charge limit setting, reboot, and the battery will charge to 100%.
The battery percentage jumps around wildly — it reads 60%, then drops to 15% in minutes without heavy use. What is happening?
The fuel gauge IC on this platform uses a learned model of the cell's voltage-to-capacity curve, and after a cell swap that model is calibrated to the old, degraded cell — not the new one. The result is large, unpredictable jumps in the displayed percentage. Let the laptop discharge fully to hibernate cutoff on real workload, then charge uninterrupted to 100% without unplugging partway through. Repeat that cycle twice and the fuel gauge IC will have enough data points to track the new cell's curve accurately.
