    Cant say for certain since until Monday I won't have either but I think it's highly unlikely they share a battery. A p170em and a p170hm might share a battery and a p150em and a p150hm but even that isn't a certainty by any means; but I think the likelihood of 2 different sizes sharing a battery is minuscule at best.

    If your reseller is telling you they use a different battery I can guarantee they do.

    As far as I know they all share the same 8-cell 76.96WHr battery. P150HM/P151HM/P170HM/P150EM/P151EM/P170EM But I guess we better hear from a reseller to confirm.
