Description

The HP EliteBook 8470W Battery packs isn't charging. What's the deal?

New hp EliteBook 8470W battery packs is shipped in a discharged condition and must charged before use. We generally recommend an overnight charge (approximately twelve hours). Refer to the user's manual for charging instructions. Rechargeable hp laptop batteries should be cycled - fully charged and then fully discharged - two to four times initially to allow them to reach their full capacity. (Note: it is normal for a hp EliteBook 8470W battery packs to become warm to the touch during charging and discharging).

New hp laptop batteries are hard for the device to charge; they have never been fully charged and are therefore "unformed". Sometimes the device's charger will stop charging a new hp EliteBook 8470W battery packs before it is fully charged. If this happens, remove the battery from the device and then reinsert it. The charge cycle should begin again. This may happen several times during the first battery charge. Don't worry; it's perfectly normal.

• Store batteries for EliteBook 8470W between 20°C and 25°C (68°F and 77°F) with 80 - 90% charge.
