I have the ibm laptop more than three years, the thinkpad battery had not been replaced. The past six months, the deteriorating ability of battery-powered, to watch a test today, Helena, had only 20 minutes with the. Want to buy new pieces of the original one just did not expect that a blue Monopoly Express about accessories, I would: R2611 lithium batteries 850! My machine is only worth the money? To ask the secondary market, selling a piece of the battery 350, is Paul a month, but a month after that?
There is no way for cats drive the Internet, online experts you seek. In various notebook forums or website, there is the old T60 battery on the core for the introduction, there are specialized to do this live dealers. A battery of 10 to 25 per month. However, this kind of like I used IBM batteries, there are eight nickel-metal hydride batteries, have to calculate at least a 100 you spend. Although 100 is a meal, not after the event put on, even the original 20 minutes it does not have any. Can not take the risk.
At this moment, the forum with a top of mind for me: Ni-MH battery and memory efficiency is obvious, it is better to try to discharge, before making any moves. I got a multimeter, measure the battery 2611 is negative, the battery is at the two ends of the interface is negative. Amount of voltage of a 10V, it seems normal voltage, the total discharge, the thinkpad t60 battery of the possibility of return is still very large.
Now, on the implementation of discharge. AC disconnect, restart your computer, look at power display: 98%, open Winamp to listen to Mp3, after listening to 20 minutes, the computer prompts preservation. At this point one percent of the electricity show. The computer into hibernation soon the. Shutdown, removed the battery, a test voltage, the strange: 10V! No matter, he found two small light bulbs 6V emergency lights, connected to a power supply, abnormal light bulbs, so placed it on the first, after nearly two hours, lights finally went out (later found burned out). Fitted with the battery, connect AC power, boot, power management that it is charging, about 5 minutes, even 60% of charge! How could it? ? ? Almost half an hour, full of power. Start “Battery Bar” tests showed that 100% of electricity, disconnect the AC power, Battery Bar shows battery remaining 98% is expected to use the 3 hour and 10 minutes. Feel pleased but not show my mind: “Is this on the list? Too Easy a bar!” Start Winamp music, but did not have 10 minutes, we heard the sound alarm! “Lack of electricity, please replace the battery.” Shows that 3% of electricity, and then the computer goes into sleep mode. The lenovo battery took only 10 minutes, removed the battery, a test voltage, or 10V, it seems no power to release, no way, connected to light bulbs, waiting for you. About 5 minutes, lights out, and a test voltage is still 10V. How do let to let go, it seems that no less power to see if the bulbs burned out! It seems like this is not acceptable.
I installed the battery, disconnect the AC power, your computer could start! Or 3% of electricity consumption. Then there is the shortness of the alarm sound, the computer into sleep. Now, I fell into a meditation.
Since the lenovo T60 battery is still able to start the computer, it is sufficient to show adequate electricity. Start into sleep soon after that the battery discharge is not stable, not power has been exhausted. Well, sure enough power remaining to start the computer. Try not to do: the computer in sleep, the mouse click to activate it, etc. After a while the computer in sleep again to activate it, so that the effect of discharge may improve. In this way, the computer to sleep the first 3 minutes each time up. Toss about 45 minutes, the computer can not be the last wake up. Removed the battery, the voltage is less than 5V, making the light bulb 6V, continue to discharge until the lights out, it should be said that the success of a discharge.
Re-fitted with batteries, connect AC, boot. Display power management: is charging, electricity 1%.
I am ready to open the Word to write this article and found that the show has always been to stay in power by 1%, but parts of his hands touch the battery a little heat, it should be in charge. Such as a 1 hour 50 minutes, shows that 43% of electricity consumption. I can not go on and so on, to say the first test.
AC disconnect, start “Battery MaxiMiser Wizard” to set to medium energy battery (cpu speed: medium CPU speed Medium LCD
the brightest screen brightnessevel 7), the beginning of battery life estimation, the background running the program Winamp, word. Cpu usage 100%.
The release of relatively stable electricity beginning from 43% to 37% of time 2 hours, from 37% to 31% of the time-consuming 9 points, from 31% to 25% time-consuming and 9 points, from 25% to 3% of the time-consuming 10 minutes . Battery within 30 minutes of actual usage, electricity consumption by 40%. If the pro rata calculation, the thinkpad t60 battery should be able to use full power for about 80 minutes. At this point, declaration of a perfect return of the battery.
