Dell Latitude D830 Battery is a Dell normal battery. You can power your laptop with this 9-Cell Lithium-Ion Primary Battery from Dell. With a capacity of up to 85 WHr Latitude D830 battery. This product comes with 1 year warranty. In my opinion it always can work about 1 year and 1 weeks long, just out of its quality warranty.

I did a simple test to emulate light use of the laptop under Dell D830 battery power. I turned the screen down to half brightness and let windows media player play music at a relatively low volume. This test was also done under the default Vista setup, prior to the installation of ForceWare drivers.
The 9-cell primary on its own reached 10% in a bit under three hours. Together with the media bay battery it reached 10% in just over four and a half hours.

Customer reviews:

Review:For the first year, the product will work well. Shortly thereafter, the Dell laptop battery life will not slowly decrease. Immediately you will notice a drastic fall in battery life to around five minutes. For battery performance, this is unacceptable. The warranty is only one year for a reason. Unless you plan to buy batteries annually (or thereabouts) i suggest buying another type of laptop. In all the Latitude D830 battery is "Easy to swap out - works like a champs".
