    Super cheap, stack with CPP! Likely up to 35% off

    Cheaper than the crappy OEM battery!

    It's time to get a new battery!!! :D :D

    The Lenovo Outlet also has fantastic deals on batteries- LINK

    For instance, for a SL/R/T-series 14"- a 4-cell battery is only $31.99 or 6-cell for $39.07! Note- they are classified as Scratch & Dent, but it's only minor cosmetic blemishes. Who cares if a battery is scratched when they're that cheap??? :D

    Thanks for the heads up, i'm heading to China for a study abroad program and it is going to be a 13 hour flight! I bought a new "scratched and dented" 6-cell battery for my W500-- with a small nap I should be able to make it all 13 hours with my two 6-cells

    I guess the first one is for the newer models...or at least the part number. Go with that it is cheaper anyways ;).

    The top one is for 15" notebooks (e.g. T500, T61 15", R500, SL500, W500).

    The bottom one is for 14" wide notebooks (e.g. T400, T61 wide).
