Heads up: Where to purchase an authentic Asus battery for the G751-JT

[Sinfullysweet]

Good afternoon!

After reading through these forums for days regarding the battery problem (dead cells, not charging, etc), I attempted to purchase a battery through Amazon.com. Unfortunately, I learned very quickly that "offbrand" products do not work nicely with Asus. I ended up returning that battery (getting a full refund). I spoke with an official at Asus asking why do they not sell the batteries online for replacement. More or less its because since the the laptops are not really consumer friendly to work with they would rather have you send it in and allow them to work on it.

After getting a price quote of $691 for service and labor alone (not including the battery), I realized I couldn't afford that route at all. There was something great that came out of the situation. I found a Asus Product Supplier online that sold authentic Asus Parts. It is located in Sweden, but I was ok after doing research regarding the company.

Two days ago my battery came in and it was in fact a authentic Asus product. After installing the correct battery, I have had no further problems and my G751-JT works like brand new again. I highly recommend once installing, charge the battery fully, then discharge the battery fully before letting it charge again.

I'm sending the battery back that I bought from Amazon and I ordered the one from NewEgg to check out. I'll report back when I have it installed. I expect to have the utility "BatteryInfo" give me a 100% capacity instead of only 75% with the Amazon battery. https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/battery_information_view.html

Ive gotten more than one part from https://www.asusparts.eu/. All OEM. Alot of aftermarket stuff out there too but watch the mAH on the battery. My G752VY that I just replaced it 90WH where the after markets are often a lot less at 66WH.
Laptop battery express also carries OEM and aftermarket.

Also found this site: https://www.ifixit.com/Store/PC-Laptop/Asus-A42N1403-Laptop-Battery/IF335-075?o=2
If the Newegg battery is crap, then I'll try this one.

I got the new battery installed so the one from NewEgg does work great. Took almost 2 weeks to get it, and It's reporting:
Full Charge Capacity - 78,000mWh
Battery Health - 100%
Battery Name - GT51-60
MFG - AsusTek
So I'm sending the other one back to Amazon for a refund.

After almost a month of having it installed, it still reads 100% charge after sitting for 3 weeks turned off. So this is a good battery replacement.

This is where Ive bought my parts from and they have never disappointed, including the battery I just replaced in my G752VY. Went right back to OEM specs on wh and holds a chage and discharges as new.

I've been checking their site frequently for a while but the battery replacement for G751JT is out of stock. I am based in the UAE so Newegg is also out of the question. One of the options I have is

https://www.amazon.ae/Laptop-Replacement-Battery-A42N1403-A42LM93/dp/B09DD2BK3G/

which is not all that great.

Wanted to give an update on the NewEgg battery - it's crap! I was playing a game with the AC plugged in, and the laptop shut down and would not turn on even with it plugged in.

After taking the laptop apart so I can disconnect the battery, it was able to power on so the battery failed. After removing it, I'm lucky it did not explode. There was a section in the middle of the battery that was bulging and had a electrical burning smell. I placed it outside for a day to make sure it will not blow up or catch fire.

So I'm ordering the one in post #13: https://www.ifixit.com/Store/PC-Laptop/Asus-A42N1403-Laptop-Battery/IF335-075?o=2

Update: got the new battery installed. According to iFixit, I needed to charge the battery to 100%, then keep it plugged in for an additional 2 hours which I did. I then unplugged it and let it run down. It got to ~51% then the laptop shut off. It was suppose to go down to 5% or less, but it never got there. I then charged it again to 100%, then let it run down. This time, I let it run down to 8% before I plugged it in. It seems to be working fine. I guess time will tell.
