Notebook Battery

[MisterMan]

HI

The battery in my notebook is dead. Its an old computer and want to make a few improvments. the connection is also bad so anytime the power connection gets moved it shuts off the laptop.

IM in Phuket. I am wondering

Where can I get a new compaq compatibale battery? Refurb is fine by me

or the cell replaced.

Any web addressed in THailand?

Thanks heaps.

I have a Compaq Notebook too that has power problems.

Turns out the laptop will run fine without the battery.

I am using it right now with no battery.

As long as the power cable/charger is working, of course.

My problem was and still is with the power connector at the laptop.

I have to hold it at an angle to get the connection and have the

laptop start. I will get it fixed and repaired when I have the time.

JFYI

The bigger Amorn branches will have battery cell replacement services. I don't know if Phuket has a big branch. Usually costs a couple thousand baht, depending on the configuration.

Replacement batteries can be found at various IT centers, but they might not have your specific model.

there are 2 Amorn branches in Phuket, one in the basement of Big C and one near the bus terminal in Phuket Town. Might be worth checking out.
