    I picked up a used lenovo T22. It has horrible battery life (around a half hour). From looking at old reviews of the notebook I found it should be closer to 3 hours. I know the previous owner kept it constantly plugged in. Is there anyway to re-condition this battery? If not, what is the best site to buy a new battery? Will the new battery have the finish to match the case?

    Never bought a notebook battery from them, but I have purchased other aftermarket batteries from this site: batteries.com. They seem pretty decent.
