Selling ThinkPad 27++ battery for W510, T510 or T410
Posted: Tue Feb 16, 2010 4:50 pm
I just got it today, used it for about 2 hours and decided to try to sell it on e-bay or send it back. Since they're a bit tough to get through Lenovo, I thought I'd sell it myself.
Now, why am I selling it? I don't feel I need it. It's heavier than the 90 watt power adapter and I'm getting some good battery life with the 9 cell for my W510. If I'm in a meeting for more than 2-3 hours, I'll bring the adapter.
My thoughts are that I didn't like the way it raised the keyboard. At it's thickest, it's 1.25 inches. The box of Scotch Tape in the pictures on EBay is 2.5 inches high. I also bought the SATA adapter and will be keeping it. Another "issue" is that the battery slice covered the DVD ejector slider. I had to remove the battery to switch between DVD and SATA disk. It also won't work with a dock since it plugs into the docking connector.
Pro's: double battery, slice battery
Con's: keyboard angle (to me), covering the dvd device ejector
Now, if you're still interested, you can purchase it here:

or through Lenovo too.
Feel free to ask any question you may have.
