W500 battery comparability questions.

#1 Post by Hans Gruber » Tue Mar 14, 2017 7:55 pm

Are any of these compatible with the W500/T500 thinkpad. The listing says they are brand new original Lenovo batteries. Two different listings from the same seller. Reviews have said the batteries are indeed brand new but from 2009. Are these lithium ion batteries still good sitting unused in storage? I have T61 thinkpads both 14" and 15" models and I know there is a difference between the 14" and 15" widescreen models with regards to battery size.

Yes they are. All 14" & 15" 4:3 and 15.4" Thinkpads use the same 9 cell battery.

Are they the same battery? Two different prices but the capacity says they are the same.

92P1132 *should* be a Panasonic battery if my memory serves me right. You may want to verify with the seller that you'd be receiving an item with that FRU number.
