    Hello folks,

    I have the 44+ battery for my lenovo X230, rapidcharge is supposed to charge to 80% within half-hour. However even with my 90W adapter, I find the charging to be much slower. For example, I just finished charging from 46% to just 62% in 30 minutes. Do I need to enable something in the BIOS or somewhere to get the lenovo to rapidcharge the battery.

    Thanks

    You are right.. I knot X230T doesn't have Rapidcharge for sure. Thought they would be the same.
    I don't know.. maybe it only applies to the 4 cell smaller battery?
