    How many options do I have for the t420s Ultrabay batteries?

    Is it the same as the T410s?

    The ThinkPad battery is designed to fit most ThinkPad models, in particular T400s, T410s and T420s.

    There is only one option, and it's a 3-cell (Li-Polymer, 10.8 V, 2.9 Amp/Hr) that lasts a bit over an hour. Unfortunately!

    The Ultrabay Battery module fits neatly into the Ultrabay media bay, where the optical drive usually resides. You pop the optical drive module out and you pop the Ultrabay Battery module in.

    I suggest you seriously consider the T410 or T420 instead.
