Can You Revive a Dead Laptop Battery?

The simple answer is no. Your laptop battery is a component that will wear out over time. Typically, a laptop battery will function for three years (300-500 charges). If your laptop battery is not working after charging, and is more than three years old, it is likely worn out.

Do not try to disassemble the laptop battery. If your laptop battery is less than three years old but doesn't hold a charge, you can try to calibrate your laptop battery to regain full power capacity.

If your laptop does not power on while plugged into the wall, you may need to replace your charging cable. There may also be other issues with your laptop. Our friendly and tech savvy support team is here to help with any laptop power or compatibility questions.
