Has LG joined battery games too??? I have never used a LG battery before. The worst is the Sanyo and Sony. I had 1 Panasonic from a T41 and after 400 charge cycles, it still holds 79% of original charge capacity.
Sony and Sanyo all have been on battery recall lists from Apple Ipods to Dell lapburningtop... and the recent recalls involves Sony and Sanyo batteries.
LG laptop i am not sure, but when i had LG phones, their batteries was one of the worst i have ever used, and they overheat like no tomorrow. Hopefully LG is better at Laptop battery.
Panasonic is my favourite make, since i have had good runs with them, and so far they stayed off the news report of various battery recalls that has happened.
The quality of the battery will show after 200 charge cycles. And all 4 of mine Panasonic battery have held up quite well. 3 Sony have died on me, and Sanyo... lost count, like maybe 20 or so including ipod battery.
Sanyo: 3 Thinkpad batteries that was exchanged under recall, 4 Sanyo batteries died on Thinkpad, 5 on Dell and Macbook/Pro of various flavours (yes i do use and own other company laptops), the rest is all Ipod Mini (i had at least one of each colour, pink was for my girlfriend).
