This new extended one is to replace to my small size original battery for my T60 laptop that I have been used for years. The old one was only lasting about 1.5 hours; With one, I got about 4.25 hours. I carried it for a long plane trip. It works great and price was quite low. THANKS A LOT.

almost a year of regular use and I still have more than 3 hours of battery life. the quality is very durable,although it is not the original.

Shipped quickly. after charging and draining it three times, as recommended, it has a decently long life of 3-5 hours of continuous use, and more if putting on standby. wish this item could be used for longer time. highly recommended.
