Samsung NP930MBE-K02HK Replacement Battery 11.5V 4800mAh

Samsung NoteBook 9 Pro NP930MBE / NP730XBE Series — 11.5V Li-Polymer Replacement Battery (AA-PBSN3KT / BA43-00392A)

This is an 11.5V, 4800mAh (55.2Wh) Li-Polymer battery for the Samsung NoteBook 9 Pro and 730XBE series. It fits the NP930MBE-K02HK, NP730XBE-K01CN, NP930MBE-K02CN, NP730XBE-U01HK, and over 35 additional NP-series variants sharing the same OEM part numbers AA-PBSN3KT and BA43-00392A. The slim 4.20mm cell profile matches the original battery bay dimensions exactly.

• NP930MBE / NP730XBE platform fit: These models share the same 11.5V power rail, three-cell Li-Polymer layout, and SMBus BMS handshake. Any unit carrying AA-PBSN3KT or BA43-00392A in its service manual will accept this cell without connector or firmware conflict.
• Bench tested on actual hardware: We ran this cell against the NP930MBE charge controller. The BMS accepted the full charge cycle without fault codes, balanced all three cells within spec, and held stable voltage under combined CPU and display load without triggering thermal cutoff.
• Post-swap calibration for the NP930MBE: After installing, run one full discharge to hibernate-cutoff, then charge uninterrupted to 100%. This resets the BIOS battery learn cycle and clears the inaccurate health warning that appears in Samsung Settings after every cell swap.

BIOS reporting battery health as poor immediately after replacement

The NP930MBE stores historical charge data in EEPROM on the original battery's BMS. When a new cell goes in, the BIOS compares the new cell's EEPROM baseline against the usage history it expects, sees a mismatch, and flags the battery as unknown or degraded. This is a data mismatch, not a faulty cell. Running a complete discharge-to-hibernate followed by an uninterrupted charge to 100% forces the BIOS to write a new baseline. After two to three full cycles, the health indicator will update to reflect the actual cell condition.

Laptop shuts down abruptly at 20–30% charge shown

This happens when the fuel gauge IC has not yet calibrated against the new cell's discharge curve. The IC still uses the old cell's voltage-to-capacity mapping, so it misreads the remaining charge and the system shuts down before the gauge hits zero. The cell itself is not defective — it simply hasn't taught the IC where its actual voltage cliff sits. Run two full discharge cycles down to hibernate cutoff and recharge fully each time. After that, the fuel gauge will track the new cell accurately and the premature cutoff will stop.
