Looking For Spare T400 6 Cell

#1 Post by hunterman223 » Wed Apr 27, 2011 1:36 pm

[*]I am looking for a spare battery for my T400 to-be. I noticed there are multiple FRUs listed on the service parts page. Is one better than the other? Newer, etc. The FRUs are:

42T5262
42T5264
42T4663 (replaces 42T4548)

I got them from this link:

I'd aim for Panasonic celled ones; they're supposed to be better.

Mine has a 42T4678 Panasonic 6-cell battery; 7% wear after 201 cycles.

How do I find out ahead I time about the cell manufacturer?

Thanks, bookmarked. These FRUs are post-T61 recall right? I know T61 batteries are compatible with T400.
