That's the big clincher with laptops. The dang funky-shaped terminal-soldered batteries. Argh.

I just put Mint on my X230, it even has one of those nicer big capacity batteries! But it definitely doesn't last like it.

I wish there were better ways to fit newer battery arrangements into these discontinued proprietary slots without risking the fakes market. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ
