XPS 13 9343, replace 52W 7.4v battery with 56W 7.6v?
I have an XPS 13 9343 and need to replace the battery. I've been sent a replacement which is a 56w 7.6v batter but the battery it came with seems to be a 52w 7.4v battery. Can I use the replacement 56w battery without damaging the laptop?
Thanks

Hi -c-h-r-i-s-,
Thanks for posting. Apologies that your system battery is not performing as expected.
Here's a note of caution: Using a non-Dell battery is not advised. Replace the battery only with a compatible battery purchased from Dell that is designed to work with your Dell computer. Do not use a battery from other computers with your computer.

Hello,
Any feedback on this? I have the same question.
Is it possible to switch from 7.4v to 7.6v (or vice-versa)? What are the consequences?

Hi @robert p,
Thank you for your note of caution. The thing is, I cannot find the original XPS 13 9343 52Wh 4-cell laptop battery (JD25G) from certified dealers. Dell Support said there were not in stock and not produced anymore.
Can you recommend alternatives?

What "SCAM"
Oh. The scam that you can only purchase OEM original batteries from the laptop manufacture.
I have purchased thousands of original batteries from eBay for 15-20 years and have not been "SCAMMED" once!!!!!

Dell no longer sells replacement batteries for XPS13 9343. Are there any recommended 3rd party sellers?
I purchased a replacement battery from a 3rd party seller but the laptop did not accept the battery. It would blink the front light amber/white and then would shut down automatically. Please suggest a third part battery seller which can supply an OEM battery for my XPS13 9343.

Hi everyone,
So... Is it possible - and viable - to replace a **52Wh, 7.4V** battery with a **56Wh, 7.6V** battery?

The slight difference in voltage won't affect your laptop in any way; even OEM batteries will show slight different values than stated, when tested out of the box.
And, as you know, voltage lowers a bit when a battery discharges, and increases when it's loaded, it's basically how a system knows a battery is charged or needs charging.
So no, you guys don't need to worry about it, 0.2V difference is a negligible value.
