Replacement Battery for Lenovo ThinkPad T460s T470s Series (Compatible with 00HW038, 01AV406, SB10J79003)

Restoring Power to Your ThinkPad T460s and T470s

The Lenovo ThinkPad T460s and T470s are renowned for their slim profile, lightweight design, and business-ready performance. But like all laptops, their internal batteries have a finite lifespan. Over time, you may notice reduced runtime, faster discharge, or the need to stay plugged in constantly. If this sounds familiar, a battery replacement is the most cost-effective way to breathe new life into your device.

However, there’s something crucial you should know about these specific models.

Two Batteries, One Replacement at a Time

Unlike many laptops that contain a single battery, the ThinkPad T460s and T470s feature two separate internal batteries working together to power your device. This design allows for extended runtime and a slimmer profile, but it also means replacement requires a bit more attention.

This listing is for one replacement battery that can serve as either the primary or secondary battery, depending on which one needs replacement in your system. Before ordering, you’ll need to:

1. Check your system to identify which battery is failing
2. Remove both existing batteries from your laptop (following proper safety procedures)
3. Verify the part number on the specific battery that needs replacement
4. Order the correct matching battery based on that part number

How to Install Your New Battery

Installing an internal battery requires care and attention. Here are general steps to guide you:

1. Power Down: Completely shut down your laptop and disconnect it from any power source.
2. Disconnect Existing Battery: Before removing the old battery, carefully disconnect its connection to the motherboard to prevent any electrical issues.
3. Remove Old Battery: Unscrew and gently remove the old battery from its compartment.
4. Connect New Battery: Carefully connect your new battery to the motherboard, ensuring the connection is secure.
5. Secure and Test: Screw the new battery into place, then power on your laptop to verify it’s recognized and charging correctly.
