Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 3,000, as a brand new replacement pack for one of HP's most common older laptop families. It is a 6-cell lithium-ion battery in the HSTNN-DB42 format, the same slide-in shape and connector used across the Pavilion dv2000 and dv6000 and the Compaq Presario V3000 and V6000. The HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery also fits the Presario F500, F700 and C700 and the HP G6000 and G7000. Pick one up at our first-floor shop in the Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Built for households, small shops and offices across Kenya that keep an older laptop for one dependable job, the HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery solves a familiar problem. The machine still boots, still runs the accounting package or the children's typing lessons, but it dies the second the charger is pulled. A worn pack also leaves you stranded when KPLC cuts power in the middle of a document. With the HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery fitted, the laptop can ride out short outages, move from the counter to the back office, and save your work properly.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that guess at fit from a photo of the laptop's lid, Mascom International matches the part code first. Send the code on your old battery, such as HSTNN-DB42 or 411462-421, or the model sticker under the laptop to our WhatsApp, or bring the machine in and our team will check the fit at the counter. Buyers throughout Kenya report that this saves a second trip into town. The HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery carries a 6-month warranty and ships pay-on-arrival to every county, Nyeri and Kakamega included.
Common Questions About the HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery
What is the HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery price in Kenya?
The HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery sells for KSh 3,000 at Mascom International, Nairobi CBD, as a brand new replacement battery. The price includes the 6-cell pack and a 6-month warranty on manufacturing defects. There is no charger in the package; the laptop's own adapter charges it. Fitting is not bundled into the price, but the pack slides in by hand. You can pay on arrival anywhere in Kenya, in cash or by M-Pesa, after checking the label against your old battery.
Which laptops take the HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery?
The HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery fits the Pavilion dv2000 to dv2900 and dv6000 to dv6900 series, plus the Compaq Presario V3000 and V6000 ranges. It also fits the Presario A900, F500, F700 and C700 and the HP G6000 and G7000. The surest guide is the code on the old pack: HSTNN-DB42, HSTNN-LB42, 411462-421, 432306-001, 441425-001 or 446506-001. If your code matches, this battery fits. WhatsApp Mascom International a photo when in doubt.
Does the HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery fit a dv3000 laptop?
The HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery fits the Compaq Presario V3000, which many people call a "V3000" or "dv3000" by mistake. The Pavilion dv3000, a separate 13-inch HP model, is not on this pack's fit list, so do not order for it on the name alone. Turn the laptop over and read the model sticker: "Presario V3000" means this battery is right. For anything else, send the sticker or old battery label to Mascom International on WhatsApp and we will confirm before you pay.
Should I buy the HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery or the HP 530 Laptop Battery?
Buy the one that matches your laptop, because these two packs are not interchangeable. The HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery, at KSh 3,000, fits the consumer Pavilion and Presario machines listed above. The HP 530 Laptop Battery, at KSh 6,000, is a 14.8V 4400mAh pack for HP's 510 and 530 business notebooks of the same era. Offices running a mix of older HP laptops should check each machine's sticker; the dv2000 pack costs half as much where it fits.
Will the HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery keep my laptop running through KPLC power cuts?
Yes, the HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery lets the laptop keep running when KPLC power drops, so you can finish a task and save. How long it lasts depends on screen brightness, Wi-Fi use and the age of the hard drive. For a shop using the laptop to log sales or print M-Pesa statements, that buffer prevents lost entries. Keep the pack topped up between outages, and lower the brightness during a long cut to stretch the charge further.
Is it worth putting a new battery in a laptop this old?
A new battery is worth it when the laptop still does its one job well and only the battery has failed. At KSh 3,000, the HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery costs far less than any replacement laptop, and it keeps familiar software and files in place. It is not worth it if the screen flickers, the hinge is broken or the laptop overheats and shuts down. In that case, Mascom International can show you refurbished business laptops that will serve for years.
Why does my laptop say "plugged in, not charging", and will a new battery fix it?
That message usually means a worn battery the laptop no longer trusts, and a new HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery often clears it. A tired adapter or a loose charging port can cause the same message, though, so a new pack is not always the cure. Bring the laptop, battery and adapter to Mascom International on Kimathi Street, and our team will test each part. That way you only pay for the part that has actually failed.
Who should buy the HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery and who should skip it?
Buy the HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery if you own a working dv2000, dv6000, Presario V3000 or V6000 and need it to run off the charger again. Small traders, home users and offices with older software tied to one machine benefit most. Skip it if you need a laptop for Zoom calls, heavy browsing or study at Strathmore or JKUAT; these older machines struggle with modern websites. A refurbished HP EliteBook or Lenovo ThinkPad suits that buyer far better.
Technical Specifications
Cell Format and Voltage
- Six lithium-ion cells in the standard dv2000 layout, the regular-size pack that sits flush with the bottom of the laptop.
- Nominal voltage in the 10.8V to 11.1V range, the rating these laptops expect, so charging and the battery gauge work normally.
- The rated capacity appears on the pack label, letting you compare it with your old battery's figure side by side at the counter or over WhatsApp.
- New cells replace worn ones that have lost most of their charge after years of use, so the laptop runs unplugged again.
- Lithium-ion chemistry has no memory effect, meaning you can top up the charge at any level without harming the pack.
Compatibility and Model Matching
- Fits HP Pavilion dv2000 to dv2900 series laptops, including the special editions sold under the same model numbers.
- Fits HP Pavilion dv6000 to dv6900 series laptops, the 15-inch siblings that share the dv2000's battery design.
- Fits Compaq Presario V3000 to V3900 and V6000 to V6900, plus the Presario A900, F500, F700 and C700.
- Fits HP G6000 and G7000 notebooks, which use the same battery bay and connector as the Pavilion range, so one spare can serve a mixed office.
- Replaces part codes HSTNN-DB42, HSTNN-LB42, 411462-421, 432306-001, 441425-001 and 446506-001 printed on the original pack.
Build and Safety
- Slide-in pack that locks into the underside of the laptop with the existing release latch, no screws involved.
- Protection circuit inside the pack stops charging when full and cuts output if a short or deep drain occurs.
- Black casing with the same contour as the pack the laptop came with, so the machine sits level on the desk once fitted and the rubber feet still grip.
- Contacts line up with the laptop's battery connector, so the charge light and Windows battery meter respond as before.
- Printed label lists voltage, capacity and fitting codes, useful when an office keeps records of parts for several laptops.
Charging Habits for Older Laptops
- Charges through your existing HP or Compaq adapter while fitted; the pack needs no external charger, and the laptop's charge light shows progress.
- Let the new pack charge fully before the first unplugged session, then run it down once so the Windows battery meter learns its real range.
- These older laptops run warm, so keep the vents clear and use a hard surface rather than a bed or lap.
- Avoid leaving the laptop in a parked car in Nairobi midday heat; high temperatures age lithium cells quickly.
- If the laptop will sit unused for weeks, store the battery at about half charge rather than full or empty.
Matching Your Laptop
- Read the model name on the sticker under the laptop; Pavilion dv2000, dv6000 or Presario V3000 and V6000 all match.
- Check the code on the old battery; HSTNN-DB42 or any code in the list above confirms this pack, whatever the laptop's lid badge says.
- A Pavilion dv3000 is a different machine, so send its sticker before ordering rather than buying on the name.
- WhatsApp photos of the sticker and old battery to Mascom International for a fit check before you pay.
- Walk in with the laptop and our team will slot the battery in at the counter to confirm detection and charging.
Package Contents
The HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery comes as a single brand new 6-cell replacement battery. The package holds no charger, power cord or tools, since the laptop's original adapter charges the pack and the bay needs no screwdriver. Many of these older laptops now have adapters with frayed cords or loose tips; if yours does, Mascom International stocks laptop adapters separately at our Kimathi Street shop. Bring the old adapter along so we can match the plug size.
Warranty
The HP Pavilion dv2000 Laptop Battery carries a 6-month warranty from Mascom International against manufacturing defects in the battery under normal use. If a fault stops the pack charging, holding charge or being detected, return it with your receipt to our Nairobi CBD service desk for assessment.
