    Will the Clevo P150EM battery fit inside a Clevo P150HM?

    I have a trusty Clevo P150HM, its only problem, due to age, is that the battery is now only lasting a few minutes.

    I can see a genuine replacement battery available at Scan.co.uk for the Clevo P150 EM rather than HM.

    Does anyone know if this battery is likely to work in both models? It sure does look the same...

    Actually I don't think they fit, the snap-in mechanism was changed from HM to EM...

    Darn. They are quite expensive to take a gamble on.

    I am 100% sure about the compatibility, because in the past, i change the battery of my P150HM with one of a P151Em. And the funny part, it's written P150HM bat on the P150Em battery. This is also available for the sm models... on my P170sm, this is written P170HM bat. So the battery is the same for three generation of clevo laptop (on the P1xx series) it's a good point because you could easily find a replacement battery.

    Tonrac is right, just double checked.
    (I compared a P150EM to a P170HM battery and they are different, but 15xM are all same...)
