This company ships its batteries (or at least the one I ordered) from Hong Kong. Had I checked on the "contact us" page I would have spotted it and ordered from elsewhere. Estimated time to arrive is another 2 weeks and it's already been over 1 week. |
well, the battery arrived and...
...it doesn't work.
It won't power up the laptop, when the charger is plugged in it says it has 88% charge but the charger doesn't get warm and never changes from 88%. If they've followed the same colour code on their battery as Lenovo then they have the wires crossed. I'd need to cut the wires and cross connect them to fix it since the pins aren't removable from the mini plug and since I don't know what the pin out is anyway, it would be a gamble so I'm a bit stuck.
I'm sure this is why China's GDP is so high - you have to order two to get one that works.
