Problem with setting up the battery on HP-14bf101nl
I swapped the dead battery of my HP 14-bf101nl for a new Green Cell battery, but the charge only lasted three hours. I then used the Battery Check with the HP Support Assistant, which told me the battery needed calibration.
I followed the HP manual instructions at https://support.hp.com/it-it/document/is...4211033-16. However, when I reached point 7 and clicked to start calibration, it failed because the guide said I should connect the AC adapter, even though it mentioned in point 1 that I should disconnect it.
I tried calibrating with the AC adapter connected, but the process didn’t work well. After starting the notebook, the Battery Check still showed that the battery needed calibration. Here are the links to the issues:

I also updated the BIOS and recalibrated, but the result was unchanged.
How can I fix this problem?
Attempt to clear the device manager entries for batteries, then try recalibrating the battery. It seems there might be an issue—it isn’t a real battery. Do you have a link to the battery you bought for your laptop?
You can share the battery link by following the instructions in the forum, even though they flag it as spam.
The adjustment functions exclusively with original equipment manufacturer batteries. A standard substitute is being used.
It was done but calibration is still needed. Do I need to restart the OS after rebooting before proceeding with the calibration? For the calibration, I access the menu by pressing F2 before Windows starts.
Would these batteries perform well?
They match the original codes, and the spare part number on the notebook's original battery is identical.

Not unless you change to a genuine HP OEM battery. This seems to be a real HP OEM battery, which should function perfectly. Using generic ones will always turn out more expensive than buying the right one initially.
