Exploding Battery
I’d like to say this is the year of the exploding battery, but it’s already 2007 and the Sony fiasco is yesteryear’s news. Fortunately (no I am not trying to make light of the situation…well sort of) it takes a ‘forceful impact’ to cause the battery to explode. No need to rescind our Lenovo LaVie Z Review. The recall affects over 200k laptop batteries made by Sanyo and are in the following Thinkpad models: R Series (R60 and R60e), T Series (T60 and T60p) and Z Series (Z60m, Z61e, Z61m, and Z61p). The other 100k laptop batteries were purchased as accessories sold between November 06 and February 07.
