Fits Sony VAIO Pro 13 models; replaces VGP-BPS38, VGP-BPS37, VGP-BPSE38 battery packs.
7.5V, 4740mAh lithium-polymer cell delivers 35.55Wh to restore full charge capacity on ultrabooks.
Connector seats flush into the bottom-case slot with the locking tab oriented toward the hinge.
We ran full charge cycles on a SVP1322YCW unit; BMS accepted the cell without fault codes.
After installation, run one full discharge to hibernation cutoff then charge uninterrupted to 100% — this resets the BIOS battery learn cycle and clears inaccurate health warnings that appear after every cell swap.

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

🔹 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.

Sony VAIO Pro 13 — 7.5V Li-Polymer Replacement Battery (VGP-BPS38)

This 7.5V Li-Polymer battery replaces the VGP-BPS38 cell in the Sony VAIO Pro 13 ultrabook. It fits SVP1322YCW, SVP13229PW, SVP13218PW, and over 90 additional Pro 13 variants sharing the same connector and voltage rail. Capacity is 4740mAh (35.55Wh) — matched to the original specification.

  • VAIO Pro 13 platform fit: All listed SVP13 models run the same 7.5V two-cell Li-Polymer architecture with identical BMS handshake and flat ribbon connector. The VGP-BPS38, VGP-BPS37, and VGP-BPSE38 part numbers cross-reference to the same physical cell format and EEPROM profile.
  • Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this cell on a Pro 13 unit and confirmed the BMS accepted the new cell without error flags. Charge termination triggered correctly at 8.4V and the protection circuit tripped cleanly at the low-voltage cutoff threshold.
  • First-cycle calibration on the VAIO Pro 13: After installing, run one full discharge until the laptop hibernates, then charge uninterrupted to 100%. This forces the VAIO's fuel gauge IC to recalibrate against the new cell and clears the inaccurate battery health warning that appears after every cell swap.

VAIO Pro 13 shutting down at 20–30% after a battery swap

This is a voltage cliff issue, not a faulty cell. Under combined CPU and display load, the new cell's voltage drops faster than the BIOS fuel gauge expects based on the old cell's discharge curve. The BIOS reads the voltage drop as critically low and triggers an emergency shutdown before the displayed percentage reaches zero. Running two to three full calibration cycles — discharge to hibernate, charge to 100% — lets the fuel gauge IC remap the new cell's actual discharge curve and eliminates the premature shutdown.

BIOS reporting battery health as poor immediately after installation

The VAIO BIOS reads health data from EEPROM registers written by the original cell's charge history. A new cell carries different cycle count and state-of-health values in those registers, which the BIOS flags as degraded. This is a data mismatch — not a physical fault with the replacement cell. To clear it, enter VAIO Care or the battery diagnostics utility and run a full battery learn cycle; the BIOS will rewrite the health registers against the new cell's actual capacity and the warning will not return.

Frequently Asked Questions

The VAIO Pro 13 shows a completely wrong Wh rating in system info after fitting the new battery — is the cell faulty?

No — this is an EEPROM mismatch, not a physical fault. The Wh value displayed in Windows or VAIO Care is pulled from the battery's EEPROM registers, which still hold the rated figures from the original cell's chemistry batch. The replacement cell's actual electrochemistry may report a marginally different value before the fuel gauge IC recalibrates. Run one full discharge-to-hibernate and uninterrupted charge-to-100% cycle; after calibration the displayed Wh figure will align with the cell's actual 35.55Wh rating.

My VAIO Pro 13 fuel gauge jumps around wildly — showing 80%, then 45%, then 70% within minutes of unplugging — what is happening?

The fuel gauge IC is reading the new cell's voltage curve against calibration data built for the old, degraded cell. Until it has reference points across the full discharge range of the new cell, its state-of-charge estimates are unreliable. Run two to three complete cycles — discharge until the laptop hibernates on battery, then charge uninterrupted to 100% each time — and the gauge will stabilise. After the third cycle the percentage should track smoothly with no large jumps.

The replacement battery is not charging above 80% on the VAIO Pro 13 — is the cell defective?

This is almost always a BIOS-controlled charge limit, not a cell fault. Sony's VAIO Care software includes a battery care mode that caps charging at 80% to reduce long-term cell stress — check VAIO Care or Sony's battery settings utility and confirm that mode is switched off. If no software limit is active, reset the battery controller by fully discharging to hibernate, removing the AC adapter for 30 seconds, reconnecting, and charging to 100% in one uninterrupted session. Confirm the charge ceiling is gone by checking the battery percentage once the power LED indicates a full charge.
