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.

Dell XPS 15 9560 / Precision M5520 — 11.4V Li-Polymer Replacement Battery (6GTPY)
This is an 11.4V, 8000mAh (91.2Wh) Li-Polymer replacement battery for the Dell XPS 15 9560, XPS 15 9570, and Precision M5520. It slots into the same bay as the original 6GTPY cell and connects via the factory harness. No adapters or modifications needed.
- XPS 9560 / 9570 / Precision M5520 platform fit: These three models share the same 11.4V three-cell battery bay, identical connector pinout, and compatible BMS communication protocol — that is why one cell covers all of them. The 6GTPY part number appears across all three chassis in Dell's service manual.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We ran this cell on an XPS 15 9560 and monitored BMS handshake via HWiNFO64. The BIOS recognised the cell, charge initiation completed without fault codes, and the protection circuit tripped correctly at full-cell voltage cutoff.
- Post-install calibration on the XPS 9560: After fitting, run the laptop down to hibernate cutoff on battery alone, then charge uninterrupted to 100%. This forces the BIOS battery learn cycle to reset against the new cell's actual capacity and clears the inaccurate "consider replacing" health warning that appears after every cell swap on this platform.
Why the XPS 15 9560 shuts down at 20–30% after a battery swap
The XPS 9560's EC (embedded controller) stores discharge curve data from the old cell in EEPROM. When a new cell goes in, the stored curve no longer matches the actual voltage-to-capacity relationship of the fresh chemistry. Under sustained CPU plus display load, the EC sees a voltage drop it interprets as near-empty and triggers an emergency shutdown — even though the cell has real charge remaining. Running one full discharge-to-hibernate cycle followed by an uninterrupted full charge overwrites the stale curve data and resolves the premature cutoff. After two or three full cycles the fuel gauge IC recalibrates fully and the shutdowns stop.
BIOS reporting battery Wh as incorrect after installing a 6GTPY replacement
The Wh figure the BIOS displays is read from the battery's EEPROM chip, not calculated live from the cell. If the replacement cell's EEPROM was programmed with a different rated Wh value than your original, the system info screen will show a number that doesn't match the 91.2Wh spec. This is a data field mismatch, not a capacity fault — the cell still holds its full charge. To verify actual capacity, run a full discharge cycle and read the mWh discharged in HWiNFO64 or BatteryInfoView; it should land close to 91,200mWh on a new cell at room temperature.

Frequently Asked Questions
My XPS 15 9560 says "battery unknown" or shows 0% right after I installed the new 6GTPY cell — is it dead?
It is not dead. The BIOS reads battery identity and state-of-charge from the cell's EEPROM on first boot, and if the handshake hasn't completed yet, it reports "unknown" or 0% as a default. Plug in the AC adapter, let the laptop sit at the Dell splash screen for two minutes, then boot fully into Windows with the charger still connected. If the percentage still reads 0% after five minutes on AC, shut down, reseat the battery connector, and reboot — a loose pin on the five-contact harness is the most common physical cause on this chassis.
The fuel gauge on my XPS 9560 jumps around wildly — shows 60%, drops to 15%, then climbs back up — what is happening?
The fuel gauge IC on the XPS 9560 uses a stored discharge curve from the previous cell to estimate remaining charge. After a cell swap, that curve doesn't match the new chemistry, so the percentage reading is unreliable for the first few cycles. Run two or three full discharge-to-hibernate cycles with an uninterrupted charge to 100% after each one. By the third cycle the fuel gauge IC has enough real data from the new cell to produce stable, accurate readings.
The new battery stops charging at 80% and won't go higher — is the replacement cell faulty?
Almost certainly not a cell fault. Dell's BIOS on the XPS 9560 and 9570 includes a built-in charge limit feature that caps charging at 80% to reduce long-term cell stress — it ships enabled by default on some BIOS versions. Open Dell Power Manager (or Dell Command | Power Manager if installed), navigate to Battery Settings, and switch the charge mode from "Primarily AC" or "Custom" to "Adaptive" or "Full Charge." The battery will then charge to 100% on the next cycle.
