    Laptop battery issue : Help pls

    Hi guys, i have a HP pavilion dv6-1215ee laptop bought july 2009 , i have taken a total care extra 3 year warranty. by last April or so , my battery got fried up and it was not giving me back up, so i went to HP care and they replaced ma battery , now again the same problem and when i check battery in HP software it was showing " replace ur battery " now when i called the hp customer care , they are telling me the battery and power adaptor is not included in the total care warranty :@:@:@ , is to so?



    why is this often happening? is it coz of the excess heat produced? should i consider buying a notebook cooler? if so should i go for branded like belkin or any other normal one will do...

    Batteries are generally not covered by the extended warranties.



    U'll have to pay for the replacement battery unless you can prove that there is some other fault with your lappy that is ruining the battery.
    It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me.

    Battery and chargers are not included in the extended warranties as laptop batteries are bound to fail in 2-3yrs of usage.

    People use coolers because it helps to reduce heat inside your laptop....Coolers work like AC's....It helps system to run at low temperature....
