Why isn't an additional battery an option anymore?

#1 Post by nykobing06 » Mon Dec 01, 2008 11:54 pm

Can anyone explain why I can't order an extra battery on the lenovo site? I'm ordering my computer AT THIS MOMENT ! :x

Lol, but it isn't an option under "power accessories"

I'm looking for a 4-cell.

Thanks for any help.

Its stupid. I noticed the same thing.

Also it was cheaper to get the 4 cell with the system and tack the 9 cell on there. Still it is not an option. Lenovo does that all-too-often and Ive seen it with their other older laptops while assembling them in theory too.

It confuses me to death. They do it probably when they run low on stock of batteries. It is very annoying.

You always have the option to add the extra battery to the cart after you've configured the machine. Right now, it says
Ships within 2 bus. days
for the 4 cell battery for the T400.

I dont think it discounts it with the coupons for the specific machine.
