Thinkpads Forum

Hi folks!

I just mind to replace my 4cell battery with new one 8 cell to can take more run time, which is about max 1:20 now. Actually this 4 cell one is new only on 30 some cycles but these 1:20 are not enough out of home.
Well I decide to buy an 8cell battery and I checked the FRU number of my one which is FRU P/N 42T5247 and ASM P/N 92P1164 to can find right one for replacing! And what I find out almost all of bateryes listed on ebay are with similar FRU Numbers like these:
42T5248, 92P1168, 40Y7001, 40Y7003, FRU 92P1171, FRU 92P1173, ASM 92P1174
FRU 92P1167, FRU 92P1169, FRU 92P1227, ASM 92P1170, 40Y6999, FRU 92P1163

Where my ones not mentioned! What this mean, If I take one of these it will not fit to my X60s?
By the way there is another question about exact model of my ThinkPad I checked the label placed below: there is written TYPE 1702 - CTO, BUT (one big BUT ) when I enter to BIOS and check there is diferent model number like this: 1704 69U also on windows system info the model number appears as 1704-69u! Which one I have to trust It is a model with integrated Sierra WAN!

Just for example what about this one on link below?

Any battery for non-tablet X6 series (i.e., any battery for the X6x[/s]) will fit your X60s.
[Note: the converse is not true, i.e., the "slim" 4-cell for the X60s/X61s will not fit the X60/X61. However, since you have the X60s, this note does not apply to you!]

Don't forget to say you have the X60s and that you need the spacer.

Thank You much for your help EOMtp and billp117. Nice to know this about sapcer part before order the new 8cell battery.

Cheers!
