the 4.8AH battery was standard in the 770Z and, i suppose, the X..

i have some 4.5AH batteries on hand, but i just never advertised them..

the diff is shorter recharge time and shorter run time on battery.. :-)

FWIW, Extend makes a lot of stuff for thinkpads and other notebooks..
IBM does not allow others to make batteries for thinkpads until the model had
reached EOP (end or prod)
