How to Choose the Right Lenovo IdeaPad Laptop Batteries

A good laptop can open up a world of creativity and help you maintain a steady workflow even when you're on the go. A dead laptop makes for a great paperweight, but not much else. When you don't have access to a charger, having the right batteries for your Lenovo laptop can be crucial.

How should you choose a laptop battery?

Different laptops require different batteries, so to find the right ones, you'll need to know the exact type and model of battery that your Lenovo IdeaPad requires. Here's how to do that:

  • Computer model: Know the exact model number of the Lenovo brand computer you own. To find your computer's model number, you can look in your device settings or check to see if it's printed on the device itself. You can also reference your user manual.
  • Battery model: Batteries have model and serial numbers. To find out what serial and model number you'll need for your Lenovo, there are a few easy steps to take. Unplug your device, power it down, and remove your current battery. The serial product number should be printed on a sticker that can be found on or under most batteries.
What are OEM batteries?

OEM stands for original equipment manufacturer. An OEM product for your Lenovo IdeaPad laptop will be made by Lenovo. OEM products are designed to function identically to the components of the device and brand that they're made for. This means that they should charge correctly with your power cord and work well with your specific brand and model of computer.

How do you install these batteries?

Lenovo IdeaPad laptop batteries are very easy to install. Simply power off your device, unplug it, and turn it over to gain access to the battery compartment. Open the compartment and remove your old battery. Insert the new battery and replace the cover. Power your device on, and it should begin charging.

How can you extend the life of your laptop's battery?

There are a few things that you can do to help extend the lives of your batteries.

  • Prevent overcharging: Once your computer has obtained a full charge, you should unplug its power cord. Leaving your computer's cord plugged in when your battery is full may cause damage to the battery.
  • Avoid extreme temperatures: Don't expose your computer to excessively high or low temperatures. This can cause damage to lithium ions.
  • Let it drain, not die: It isn't good for your computer to go all of the way dead or to remain dead for a long time. If you notice that your power is low, plug in your device. If you don't have access to an immediate power source, shut down your computer before it dies completely.
