How do I find the right battery for my Lenovo?

Lenovo parts categories

Lenovo has many similar model names, so the safest way to avoid a wrong order is to match the FRU/Part Number on your existing battery. Then confirm voltage, Wh, and the connector.

Step 1: Find the FRU/Part Number on the old battery

  • Look for labels like FRU, P/N, ASM, or Replace.
  • Copy the number exactly (including dashes/letters).

Step 2: Confirm the laptop model code (Type/MTM)

Use the full model identifier from the bottom label or Windows system information. Series names alone (e.g., “ThinkPad T”) can be too broad.

Step 3: Match V, Wh, and connector

  • Voltage (V) should match.
  • Watt-hours (Wh) helps compare size/runtime class.
  • Connector + battery shape must be identical.

ThinkPad dual-battery note

Some ThinkPads use internal + external batteries. Make sure you’re ordering the correct one (internal vs external) using the FRU number.
