I expect the Lenovo batteries are better but not 4x better than these
replacements at a quarter of the price.
Value for money matters more than absolute performance to me
I do have a laptop sleeve which should be adequate inside a day sack

Aftermarket batteries are a bit of a crap shoot. I had good luck
with a T23 battery from dealextreme.com (who ship free - but slowly!
- to the UK), but their T60 batteries might be from a different
source. Official Lenovo batteries are generally far superior for
longevity, fit, and likelihood of actually meeting their charge rating.
You should carry your thinkpad in some sort of padded case to
protect it from getting knocked about, no matter what size battery you get.

Subject: [Thinkpad] Battery for the T60 Thinkpad
Lo,
I am looking for a battery for the T60 so I can take it to college
and swap the battery during
a break since the included battery last 2hrs.
The course is 3 hours in an evening.
I do not want the 9 cell battery as it sticks out and since i am
travelling on public transport
it would get knocked about a little.
But apart from that i cannot really see how to distinguish between
the tens of sellers on
ebay. I will buying a clone battery as no one seems to be selling
an official Lenovo cell and
I have heard they are expensive anyhow.
Any tips before i take pot luck ?
I am in the uk.
