5.0 out of 5 stars Make sure you get the right battery for tablet!, May 29, 2008

This review is from: ThinkPad X60 Tablet 8 Cell LI-ION Battery (40Y8318) (Electronics)

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

5.0 out of 5 stars Great long life battery, September 2, 2007

By	James Tenniswood - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: ThinkPad X60 Tablet 8 Cell LI-ION Battery (40Y8318) (Electronics)

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lenovo 8Cell Li-ion battery for X61 tablet, August 4, 2008

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.
