Dell battery module bought on internet : fake or not ?

Hello !

Battery module for my Dell Inspiton 1721 is no more sold on internet dell store so I bought one on internet (french company)

It seems that there are differences between my old battery module and the new one (twice type GK479)

How can I know if it's an original Dell battery module ? 

If I send barcode, serial number or photos of the battery a member of Dell support crew can check if it's a fake or not ?

Thanks. 

Lowendal, from France.

Hi !

Ok, I have received your friend request. Thank you.

The battery was not purchased from Dell website because I haven't found it on the Dell store : accessories.euro.dell.com/.../category.aspx

So, I have bought one on a french website. It was sold as a Dell Genuine Battery but when I received it and compared it with my old one, many little differences were found (text is 180° turned, assembled in china, made in korea, and some little differences with plastic shapes).

I have taken a photo of the two batteries. The battery sold is on the top of the picture. My old battery is on the bottom.

Do you have the capability to tell me if the first battery is a genuine Dell product ? (with serial number or other information) ???

Thanks.

Hi sanvarjat,

There is nothing such as fake part or original part. The parts that Dell replaces are dell branded and it is tested before replacing. If you explain to me the issue you are facing with your laptop I will see what best can be done. Also please do not update your personal or computer information on the thread.

Hi DELL- SHRIKANTH G

I am soon going to buy the battery module for my Dell Inspiron n5050.

At the time of purchasing the battery how will I know if its genuine or not. 

Also how long is the warranty for the batteries and the Power Adaptor.

Thanks

Hi,

I hope this topic is still alive, because I've also bought an "oem" battery for my E5420. It looks (and fits) like an original, though the capacity is a bit different from what is written on it, and shows quite high wear level after just 2 charge-discharge cycles. So it has a number:

KR-049VTIP-83620-28S-CISF-A01

if you could check it, please. Thanks.
