    I'm going for the slimmest profile possible.

    No, it's flush.

    Same for the 6-cell on t500.

    I ordered the 4 cell for this reason, I also ordered the ultrabay battery for added runtime on battery power...and nothing will stick out.

    Does the nine cell stick out more than the six cell in the T400, and if so by how much? Thanks.

    The ultrabay battery is the most rubbisch battery I've ever seen.

    It's is being drained to 0.0%, what means it dies very quickly. Look forward to loose 45% of it's capacity before you cross the 20 cycle mark.

    What's next? Well; you can't set the discharge order. Ultrabay battery in means that it's being used first and charged last.

    My 6 cell T61 battery + my Ultrabay battery together now have the same capacity as the 6 cell design capacity.
