Extended battery recall

#1 Post by warder » Thu Mar 01, 2007 4:09 pm

Apparently there are some issues with overheating on the 9 cell batteries sold with certain R, Z, and T Series Lenovo / IBM Thinkpads between November of 2005 and February of this year

Hey,

My unit was affected....

I have a z61m, R60e, and a T60.

ALL have to have new batteries.

500K batteries spreads quickly....

Make sure you guys check your laptops!

My battery was part of the recall. I hope it comes quickly.
