Frequently asked questions

Which laptops does this battery fit?

It fits the Dell Inspiron 3552 that use the M5Y1K battery. Check the code printed on your current battery or on the laptop’s base and match it before ordering.

How long does a laptop battery last?

Most lithium-ion laptop batteries keep good capacity for about 300-500 full charge cycles (roughly 2-3 years of daily use). Heat and keeping the laptop at 100% all day shorten that life.

How should I charge a new battery?

Charge it fully before first use, then use it normally. There is no need to drain it completely each time. Avoid leaving the laptop in hot cars or on soft surfaces that block the vents.

When should I replace my battery?

Replace it if the laptop only works when plugged in, shuts down suddenly, shows ‘Consider replacing your battery’, or if the battery is swollen (lifting the touchpad or base). A swollen battery should be replaced immediately.
