    Hi,

    I recently bought the Tracer IV R 15 Slim 400, which is CyberpowerPC's branding of the same laptop Eluktronics is selling as RP-15, but they have not upgraded the battery from 46wh to 62wh. I want to know where/if I could get the larger battery separately somewhere. It looks like the 62wh from the Max-15 fits in. Or maybe I could wait for RP-15 to be released and they will sell replacement batteries online? Please let me know.

    I have the CyberPowerPC Tracer IV and I'm trying to find the Elektronics or Max battery to put in my device which should work.

    If you find a place I can source a battery let me know.

    I wanted to share my experience. I also have the CyberPowerPC Tracer IV. I ordered a 62wh battery from a shop online. I opened the bottom of the notebook and looked at the number on the battery. When I did a search you can easily find the 62wh. I got it on Wednesday and installed it. I have to say I am noticing a difference in battery life. I get longer times on battery when just browsing the web and watching some you tube videos. I'm happy I did it. It was easy to do and I actually recommend it for this PC. Let me know if you have any questions or even want a few pictures.

    I did recalibrate the new battery.

    Would you mind sharing where you purchased the battery and the model you purchased? My laptop will be here in a few days but I want to upgrade to the larger battery. Thanks in advance.
