70++ 9 Cell 11.1V 94Wh Battery 0A36303 Compatible with Lenovo ThinkPad T430 T430i T410 T420 T420i T510 T520 T530 L412 L420 L430 L512 L520 L530 W510 W520 W530 0A36302 45N1001 45N1000 45N1010 45N1011

I purchased this battery for my Lenovo T420 as Staples no longer carried a battery for my model. When it finally arrived I followed the break in instructions carefully. It was a perfect fit and is doing a great job. The value for the money was outstanding.The only negative I have is in the shipping. I wasn't able to ship to my P.O. Box and had to use my physical address so I figured it would come by UPS or Fedex. That was not the case as it arrived by U.S.P.S. It arrived 2 days late as it bounced around between two Amazon shipping locations in GA and NC before finally arriving at my P.O. Box anyway. Overall, it was a good experience.

To start my t530 has been upgraded to an i7 3720qm and was running a 2core i3 which would last much longer. It is running a SSD as well which is more powerefficient than spinning rust. Runs nearly all day with no power settings set in Arch linux, and max power settings in BIOS. and tons of tabs open/discord and steam open as well. My thinkpad is far from as efficient as the m1 macbook air, but it lasts pretty much all day with this new battery, and i probably wouldn't hesitate to bring it to an office job without a charger. Especially if you're on low power settings in the bios and set the power plan in linux or windows.

After getting a battery from a non-Amazon computer parts supplier that did not pass the "Genuine Lenovo" battery check, thereby running the computer but unable to recharge ( and returning the battery), I was going to go with a Lenovo branded battery for ~$84, but decided to try this brand based on their marketing photos showing that their batteries were made with the overcharge protection circuits/chips/boards, and should work. On arriving, I installed in my Lenovo W530 laptop, and no error messages, just a normal boot, and recharged from it's arrival level ~57% to 100% in just over 2 hours. I will buy from this manf/supplier again.

Fit and functioned as OEM. Extended life of laptop to 4 to 5 hours.

Bought this to replace the battery on my T420 which barely held a charge. This new battery can go for several hours depending on the usage and brightness. Time will tell if it holds up. Mine reports 95 Wh actual capacity so its actually slightly higher than advertised.Tip: Make sure you let the battery run down to a very low level (around 5% or so) and then let it fully recharge. This will calibrate the battery meter, as these batteries ship with a preprogrammed 86 Wh capacity. After calibrating, it will report the full 94 Wh capacity and should make the percentage remaining more accurate. This will also help verify if you have a bad battery.

My battery lasts easily throughout the day now, no more tethering to a power cord!

This battery worked for about 3 months with zero issues, now when I move the laptop while it's running the laptop will lose its connection with the battery and the entire system reboots. The new battery has rendered the laptop useless as I cannot work on the laptop if it is constantly rebooting and I'm losing what I'm working on. I would give this product zero stars as there is no way to return the battery, and there is no way to contact the seller directly. The automated return service is not allowing me to return the product.Very disappointing given the price coupled with the short time I've had it.

After going through a full battery cycle, my laptop is reading the battery as having 98.89 Wh capacity, which is even larger than what is stated in the product description! Also, the cells appear to be Sanyo, which are good quality.
