Mascom International stocks the HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery at KSh 2,450, a brand new replacement battery rated at 10.8V for the HP EliteBook 8460p and its close relatives. The same CC06 battery shape also fits the EliteBook 8470p, 8560p and 8570p, plus the ProBook 6460b, 6470b, 6560b and 6570b. The HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery is a six-cell lithium-ion pack that slides into the bay on the underside of the laptop and locks with a latch. It is on the shelf at our store in Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Designed for accountants, field engineers, NGO field staff and office managers who still rely on these tough HP business machines, the HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery keeps a working laptop working. The EliteBook 8460p and 8470p remain common in Kenyan offices, from Industrial Area warehouses to county government desks, because their keyboards and metal frames outlast many newer consumer laptops. The weak point is age: after a decade, the original pack barely lasts long enough to walk to a meeting room. A new battery restores real unplugged time, so the laptop can move between desks, sites and boardrooms again.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that guess at fitment from a laptop's name, Mascom International matches the CC06 code and part number before the sale. At Mascom International, we're seeing steady demand for EliteBook batteries from companies keeping older fleets running rather than buying a whole batch of new machines. Send a photo of your old battery's label or the laptop's model sticker on WhatsApp, or bring the laptop and we will confirm the HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery fits at the counter. Pay-on-arrival delivery reaches all 47 counties, so a site office in Nakuru can order the HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery without paying upfront.
Common Questions About the HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery
What is the HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery price in Kenya?
The HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery sells for KSh 2,450 at Mascom International on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, as a fresh replacement part. The price includes one 10.8V six-cell battery and a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects. No charger comes with it, since the battery charges through your laptop's existing adapter. You can pay on arrival anywhere in Kenya. Companies replacing batteries across several EliteBooks can ask on WhatsApp about stock for the number of units they need.
Does the HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery fit the EliteBook 8470p and other models?
Yes, the HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery fits the EliteBook 8470p, because both use HP's CC06 battery shape and connector. It also fits the EliteBook 8460w, 8470w, 8560p and 8570p, and the ProBook 6360b, 6460b, 6465b, 6470b, 6475b, 6560b, 6565b and 6570b. If the label on your old pack shows CC06, CC06XL, 628664-001, 628369-421 or HSTNN-LB2F, this is the battery to buy. When unsure, send us the label photo first.
What capacity is the HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery?
The HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery is a 10.8V six-cell lithium-ion pack, the standard CC06 format these EliteBooks shipped with. The exact capacity rating is printed on the label of each unit. If you need the figure before buying, for example to compare it with a quote for a fleet, message Mascom International on WhatsApp and the team will send a photo of the label on the unit in stock. That way you see the rating for yourself before you pay.
Should I buy the HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery or the HP ProBook 4530s Laptop Battery?
Buy the HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery at KSh 2,450 if you own an EliteBook 8460p or 8470p, or a ProBook 6460b or 6470b. Buy the HP ProBook 4530s Laptop Battery at KSh 3,000 if you own the cheaper ProBook 4530s, which takes a different battery shape. Both are in stock at Mascom International. The mix-up happens because both families carry the ProBook name, yet the 6000 series and the 4000 series batteries do not swap, so check the number on the laptop.
Can the HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery handle field work and long days away from power in Kenya?
Yes, the HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery suits field work, because these EliteBooks were built for travel, with metal frames and spill-resistant keyboards. A fresh six-cell pack gives back the unplugged time lost to age, which matters on site visits outside Nairobi, on a long matatu ride to Machakos, or through a KPLC blackout. Keep the laptop out of direct sun in a parked car and wipe dust from the vents, since heat and dust shorten the life of any lithium battery.
Who should buy the HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery, and who should skip it?
Buy the HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery if your EliteBook or 6000-series ProBook still boots fast, has a working screen and keyboard, and only fails when unplugged. Skip it if you need a laptop for modern video editing or heavy multitasking, since a battery cannot speed up a second- or third-generation processor. In that case a used business laptop such as the EliteBook 840 G3 is the better fit, and Mascom International stocks its HP CS03XL Laptop Battery at KSh 3,250.
Is a new battery for an EliteBook 8460p worth it in 2026?
Yes, for many owners a KSh 2,450 HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery is far cheaper than replacing a laptop that still does its job. These machines run Microsoft Office, email, KRA iTax returns, eCitizen applications and M-Pesa business statements without trouble, especially with an SSD upgrade. The laptop's sturdy build means the battery is often the only worn part. If the hinges, screen and keyboard are sound, a fresh pack gives the machine several more useful years on the move.
How can I tell whether my old EliteBook battery has worn out?
The clearest sign is a laptop that runs fine on the charger but shuts down within minutes of unplugging, which points to a worn pack rather than a fault in the laptop, and a new HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery fixes it. In Windows, typing powercfg /batteryreport in Command Prompt creates a report comparing design capacity with full charge capacity. A big gap between the two means the cells have aged. If the laptop will not charge at all, test the adapter first, since a failed charger looks similar.
Technical Specifications
Cell and Capacity
- 10.8V nominal voltage — matches the power rating of the original battery, so the laptop runs and charges normally.
- Six-cell lithium-ion construction — the standard CC06 layout these EliteBooks and ProBooks were designed around from the factory.
- Capacity rating printed on the unit label — ask on WhatsApp for a label photo of the unit in stock before you buy.
- Fresh cells with no prior charge cycles — full usable capacity from the first charge, unlike salvaged packs from scrapped laptops.
- Lithium-ion chemistry with no memory effect — short top-ups between meetings do not reduce the charge the pack holds later.
Compatibility and Model Matching
- HP EliteBook 8460p and 8460w — the 14-inch business notebooks this battery is named after, sold widely in Kenyan offices.
- HP EliteBook 8470p and 8470w — the following year's 14-inch models, which kept the same battery bay and connector.
- HP EliteBook 8560p and 8570p — the 15.6-inch versions of the same family, using the identical CC06 battery shape.
- HP ProBook 6360b, 6460b, 6465b, 6470b, 6475b, 6560b, 6565b and 6570b — business ProBooks that share this battery.
- Matching part numbers — CC06, CC06XL, 628664-001, 628666-001, 628369-421 and HSTNN-LB2F appear on compatible original labels.
Build and Safety
- Removable underside-mounted design — slides into the bay beneath the laptop and locks with the laptop's release latch.
- No screwdriver or bottom-cover removal needed — the swap happens from outside, so internal parts stay untouched.
- Keyed connector — the pins meet the laptop's contacts only one way, so the pack cannot be inserted the wrong way round.
- Protection circuit built into the pack — standard on lithium-ion laptop batteries, it stops charging when the cells are full.
- Black housing that sits flush with the base — matches the underside of the laptop without a raised step or gap.
- Counter fit check on request — bring the laptop to Mascom International and the team confirms the match before payment.
Charging and Everyday Use
- Charges through the laptop's existing HP adapter — the round-pin HP business adapter these models use powers it fully.
- Charges while the laptop is in use — keep working on spreadsheets or email as the pack fills in the background.
- Battery status in Windows and on the laptop — the taskbar icon shows percentage, and the front charge light shows charging.
- One full charge and run-down early on — helps the laptop's battery meter learn the new pack and report time left accurately.
- Store half-charged if unused for weeks — a pack left completely flat for long periods can stop accepting a charge.
- Heat shortens battery life — keep vents clear of dust and avoid leaving the laptop in direct sun or a hot car.
Inclusions
- One CC06-type replacement battery — the only item in the package, ready to slide into a matching HP laptop.
- No charger supplied — the pack charges from your laptop's adapter, and HP adapters are sold separately at Mascom International.
- No tools supplied — none are required, because the battery fits from outside the laptop through the underside bay.
- 6-month warranty cover — protects against manufacturing defects, with claims handled at the Nairobi CBD service desk.
- Free label check before purchase — send your old battery's code on WhatsApp and the team confirms compatibility.
Package Contents
The HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery comes as a single unit with nothing else in the package. There is no charger, because the battery takes power from the HP adapter your laptop already uses. If your adapter has failed or its cable is frayed, compatible HP laptop adapters are sold separately at Mascom International. No tools or screws are included, as none are needed for an underside-latch battery. Keep the receipt safe to support any warranty claim.
Warranty
The HP EliteBook 8460p Laptop Battery is covered by a 6-month warranty from Mascom International against manufacturing defects, such as cells that will not charge or a pack that loses charge abnormally under normal use. Claims are handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk in Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street.
