So basically, i have a HP 11" stream laptop where the battery would not charge.
I assume battery dead, been left off too long so dead. Order a new battery (used but apparently working fine) and again it will not charge.
I'm starting to think perhaps its a BQ chip of some sort responsible for charging that isn't functioning.
I have another HP laptop its a bigger 14" model, different battery but uses the same connector. Checked the pinout of both batteries and they line up.
So hey might aswell try, both the original battery and new replacement both charge on the 14" laptop. I let them charge for 30mins or so each.
Put the batteries back into the 11" laptop and whoa now they both charge like normal.
Why is this?, trying to get my head around it for future trouble shooting.
Why would both batteries not charge from dead no voltage in the 11" but charged fine in the 14" and why are both now charging in the 11" once they had a bit of charge in them.
Anyway i could avoid this issue in future?
