Great long life battery [Posted on 2007-09-02]
If you want to upgrade your x60 (or in my case x61 tablet) to working all day from the battery, then this is the solution. It adds about 1 inch to the depth of the laptop, but because it's got a rubberised surface, it makes the tablet easier to hold.
Highly recommended for mobile work life.
Great battery [Posted on 2008-03-15]
The battery provides around 4 to 5 hours. On long trips, I carry a spare. The Thinkpads (not Lenovo) are the only laptops I will buy and I am on my 6th one since my very first one over 12 years ago.
Make sure you get the right battery for tablet! [Posted on 2008-05-29]
This is the Lenovo Li-Ion 8 Cell battery for the Lenovo X60 and X61 TABLET laptops. It's great - 4.5+ hours of battery life while working.
However - make sure it is the one you need. The regular X60/61 battery will NOT fit the tablet (definitely), and vice-versa (I think). There is a big notch in the battery to accommodate the swivel hinge.
Also, I think the photo is of the 4 cell version, which is slightly slimmer. The 8 cell version sticks out about an inch, and is covered with a rubberized grip (works well, makes it easier to hold, as per an earlier review).
If you have a Lenovo TABLET PC, then this makes a great purchase. It's the original Lenovo part and it works great. If you have the regular version (non-tablet) of the X60 or X61, then get the regular battery (Thinkpad X60 Series 8 Cell High Capacity Battery,eight-cell, Rechargeable System
Lenovo 8Cell Li-ion battery for X61 tablet [Posted on 2008-08-04]
I already had a 4-cell Li-Ion battery for the X61 tablet. Bought this one to provide extended battery for my daily work. It can hold up to 5+ hours. Lenovo also has this great feature where in Control Panel-> power management->battery information, you can set your batteries not to start recharging when the power cable is plugged until the remaining charge is less than some value you set (I set it to 50%). Instead of fequently recharging from 9X% to 100%, this feature can save a lot of battery recharging cycles, and supposedly enlonger the battery life. Overall, I am glad with both of my batteries, and the tablet itself too.
Nice when it works, and the support? [Posted on 2008-08-30]
It worked well while it lasted.
Died on me suddenly, shortly after the 1st year of warranty.
The extended warranty for 3 years was purchased with the laptop, however, Lenovo claims that the extended warranty does not apply to batteries!
Nor will they test my computer to see if the adapter or computer was at fault.
After many disappointments (other than this one) with Lenovo's service and products, I say no more.
