It's been over a month and the battery has been working great, the extra battery life is nice to have. In the beginning the computers "battery life" software had a hard time understanding that it was a new battery. But after a couple of charges it was recognized and started working fine.

I have had this battery for about 2 weeks now and it has been working great. I get around 4 hours of battery life on my dv9200 laptop now when I got 3 hours on the HP battery that died. It dose bulge out from the bottom but it actually makes the laptop easier to use when typing and keeps the laptop cooler. Also while in the car I rest the laptop on my leg where the battery is and it dose not make my lap as hot when working on it. I did some battery life tests and it dose do well with the great demand that my laptop gives it for example I can actually play high end games with this battery with out it going dead like Crysis (I was very surprised about this.) and Rainbow Six Vegas 2 with no problem. When playing a game it dose make the battery die faster but not that much but I expected this. All and all this is a great battery and worth buying. It would be nice to see where it was made and by who but I could probably guess where. (Made in China and a generic battery company.) If you want insane battery life get this because this was hard to find any 12 cell battery anywhere.

Bought this to replace the battery on my daughter's laptop. It works great and she is very happy with it.

This 12 cell battery replaced my oem battery. I have a custom built 17" HP laptop with every upgade option available and it consumes a lot of power quickly. I've been using this new battery over a month now and I have no complaints. I am getting in the vicinity of 4 hrs runtime before recharging. With the power consumption that my laptop utilizes, I am very pleased with the performance of this battery. Great Buy!!!

I bought this battery 1 month ago, as a replacement for the original. So far so good. I love this battery. I get about 4 hours of use, before it has to be plugged in. I would recommend this battery.
