    HP Spectre X360 battery ???

    Hello,

    This laptop have been laying around for more than a year because it was not working and I did not have the tools at the time to repair it. But now I do and that's exactly what I did this week.

    I changed the first mosfet (was shorted) and the BQ chip, now the laptop is working. When I plug the charger, the light goes amber for 2 seconds then solid white. A solid white means the charger is plugged in and the battery is fully charged but I doubt it because it has not been plugged for more than a year ??

    If I remove the charger and push the power button, nothing happen as if the battery was completely drain but the light is solid white when the charger is plug in !!

    My question is:

    Is the battery too low to be recharge or is there something else I can do to revive it or there is another problem ?

    Thank you !

    The dc jack light goes from amber to white if battery is faulty and/or fully charged.So battery being faulty is the most likely scenario here.

      The ISL88739 & ISL88739AHRZ are a highly versatile combo battery charger
      configurable for operating as either a Hybrid Power Boost (HPB)
      charger or a Narrow VDC (NVDC) charger, supporting 2-, 3-, or
      4-cell batteries. Both configurations allow the battery to work with
      the adapter together to supply the system load when it exceeds
      the adapter capability, referred to as system Turbo mode. HPB
      charger configuration reverse-boosts battery energy to the system
      bus to help the adapter provide the system power in Turbo mode.
      NVDC charger configuration...

      Highly Integrated Narrow VDC Battery Charger for Notebook Computers

      The ISL6257HRZ ISL6257HRZ-T is a highly integrated battery charger controller
      for Li-Ion/Li-Ion polymer batteries. ISL6257 is designed for
      Narrow VDC applications where the system power source is
      either the battery pack or the regulated output of the charger.
      This makes the max voltage to the system equal to the max
      battery voltage instead of the max adapter voltage. Operating
      at lower system voltage can improve...

      Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
      by Bowline
      My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

      Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

      My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
      The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
      I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

      by sam_sam_sam
      I have two Milwaukee 12 amp hours battery packs that have an issue with battery cells very unbalanced these are probably over 4 years old and been heavily used in the past but now get occasionally used heavily and when I went to use the grinder tool the battery lost battery battery power very quickly so I decided to open it up and found some battery cells voltage from 3.6 to 4.1 no wonder the battery charger was not fully charging them 3 out of 4 LEDs were on meaning that it was only 75% charged

      So I have put them on the battery testing machine to drain each battery cell down to...
