X120e Battery Charge problem

Hello

I bought my x120e about a month ago and it's been great since, but recently I had problems with the battery. When I charge the battery to 100% and then unplug the power adapter, the battery is fine for an hour or two, and load will decrease to a normal and regular rhythm (indicated by the percentage). However, when the battery is at 75-80%, then he jumps abruptly up to 10%, and I get a message that I have to charge the cell phone or turn it off. When I connect and start loading again, the battery charges at a normal speed of about 10 to 40%, but the same thing happens and it jumps up to 100%, saying it is fully charged. Generally, I would be happy with such a fast charge, but in this case the battery is not really full as soon, he dies suddenly after that I have unplug the adapter. Even if I let it continue loading at 100%, the same thing happens.

So, I was wondering if I could do something to fix this on my own, or if I should send it just come back on the one year warranty. Please tell me if I did not know by describing the problem and thanks for any help/suggestions!

I just wanted to post an update. I thought that my explanation of my problem of battery gave a negative perception of the ThinkPad x120e and lenovo in general, but I called the customer service of lenovo today and after 15 minutes, the representative has verified the problem (battery was indeed defective) and sent a new battery in my house. Overall, I am very satisfied, and I think that this problem of battery was only an isolated case. The battery is supposed to come in 2 days!

  • Satellite 1130 battery charge problem

    Hi, just joined this site. I have a Satellite 1130 and seem to have a battery charging problem. Every so often, without regular pattern or a set of events to help the machine starts beeping and the Red charge blinks, as if the battery charge runs out, it is, but it happens when the charger is plugged - green power light shows that it is connected, but it is not the battery. The only solution I found is to turn the power off, disconnect the battery and back again. Then everything works until the next time.

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    It is possible that there is a problem of electronic power supply. If the power supply microcontroller detects an error lamp DC IN sends a code flashing (8-bit error code). Can you please check it if the led blinks 8 times sending the code?

    You can try to contact the Service partner, explain the problem and I'm sure they can give you a clear explanation.

  • Battery charging problem

    My iPhone 5s has recently had a charging problem. Got off the phone with about 18% battery life left but when I plugged in to a charger it came back to life and showed 18%. However, with the charger plugged in now never charged iPhone or it does so very slowly. He fell to 16% and stayed there for about 2 hours. Eventually, he started to decline while still connected to the charger until it was empty and closed. I then connected on two different Chargers and he wouldn't return. I left him in charge all night and he was still dead in the morning.

    I had subsequently replace the battery and the charge was 34%. I decided to run low before the additional load as it was a new battery and better empty before recharging. However, the loading has become incredibly slow. I managed to load of 5% to 30% in a few hours, and then he stayed on 30% for 2 hours while I backed up things on my Mac and iCloud. I then continued the charge during the night and in the space of 10 hours, that she went from 30% to 95%.

    Why so slow taxation? I use an Apple USB with a new battery. My software is updated to January 27, 2016. Could there be a problem with the loading port, event, although she acknowledges the Chargers whenever they are connected.

    Hello

    I have a Macbook Pro 13 "2011 with El Capitan (10.11.1) start installed.

    Some time ago I started to have problems with the device. KernelTask would go up to several hundred or even thousands would rise percent utilization of the CPU and fans. It seems to be a workaround, as described here:

    I quote from this thread:

    ' 1. go about this mac under the Apple in the top left and then click more information.

    2. click on the system report

    3. take note of what he said after the model identifier

    4. go in your master drive - system - library-Extensions - IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext - table of contents - Plugins - ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin.kext - content - resources - find the name in step 3 and move it to a folder that you can find again if needed.

    3. reboot and you're done.

    I did this and the Macbook is still usable. But the fans are very high, the majority of the time and it's always a bit slow.

    I used a program to see the temperatures, the sensors detect. Everything seems normal except "proximity to battery charger": 127 ° C!

    Anyone know what this means and what we can do about it?

    Above is the name of the model and description of my docking station for my new T500. I recently had the T500 during his first trip of the road since the purchase. On my return, I discovered two things:

    1. the T500 will not start when I connect to the docking station and then turn it on. It does not even try to access the HD. It sits right on the Welcome screen. If I push the blue ThinkVantage button, nothing happens. However, if I leave the T500 to start so that undocked, then place it on the docking station, it works fine with one exception...

    2. my battery does not load while on the docking station, but will charge when connected via its own power supply. I tried to do the reset of battery meter, but it did not do anything.

    Have I not the wrong dock? The seller assured me it was compatible. If it is not the right one, you know that I need?

    Thanks for the help.

    Your question on reproducing the restart got me thinking to see also if the battery charge always not moored. He wouldn't. I removed the battery and clean the son with the air canned and put it back into the laptop. It started to load immediately while not anchored. When I rooted the laptop, continuous load. I then re-tested the ability to start then only docked and was able to reproduce successfully.

    Thanks for the help. Sorry, that was just some kind of anomaly that I attributed by mistake to the docking station.

  • Satellite M70-165 PSM70E - battery charging problem

    Hello
    My laptop is a Satellite M70-165 PSM70E. I use Windows XP Home Edition. I recently bought a new battery and it is impossible to charge more than 50%. I have updated the BIOS to 1.70 (for non Windows Vista users) and I still have the problems mentioned above. I tried to dischage completely and charge it again, several times, with no luck.

    Is there a solution?

    Another question. There is no 'EC' in the BIOS version, only "BIOS version 1.70". I hope there will be some calibration of the battery or the power management after the BIOS update, but there is no menu "Power Management" in the BIOS.

    Is this correct?

    Thanks in advance.

    > recently bought a new battery and it is impossible to charge more than 50%

    In my opinion the new battery is not OK.
    You must consult an another new battery maybe you bought a battery already used?

    > Another question. There is no 'EC' in the BIOS version, only "BIOS version 1.70".
    On the page of the Toshiba UE driver you can find a BIOS update.
    I guess that this update contains the EC update too.

    Looks like you have optimized the battery or Mode of Conservation (depending on your version of Windows). If so, she works as designed stopping at 60% load.

    Does that help?

    You use the original Dell adapter for the model of this system? The adapter is frayed? The adapter stays in the company when it's plugged in or it falls easily?

    Reboot the system and press the f2 key to enter the BIOS - check the adapter status in the BIOS with and without the smart card. In addition, shake the plug of the adapter at the end and check if the status of the card changes at any time.

    Test with another adapter to power if possible.

    If the port is loose, then the DC port must be replaced otherwise, the adapter must be replaced.

    If there is no guarantee, then you can contact our team to get a quote for a paid service call - http://dell.to/1vnT6CQ

  • Problem of Satellite A200 - 28 p/battery charger

    Hello

    I had a power problem with my battery charger for a while sometimes it would charge when plugged in and others would not, so if I removed the charger to move the laptop it was a bet of 50 / 50 as to whether it would be instantly turn off or not.

    This was not too much a problem as the laptop is not moved too often, but I recently returned home to find my charger did not work at all and the cell phone was off.

    I managed to get hold of a replacement charger just to test it and I found that when it is plugged, flashing blue light which is usually strong watch the charger is plugged, and the times he has stayed solid and allowed me to boot up the laptop lasted almost a minute at best before shutting down completely not even enough time to get transfer important documents I have there.

    Is buying a new battery is going to fix this, or is the problem more likely to be something inside the laptop to be replaced?

    Hello

    I doubt that buy a new battery would solve your problem.
    Why?
    Because the laptop should also work correctly using only the AC adapter.
    So even if the battery is defective or dead, it should be possible to use the laptop connected to the network.

    The laptop has a number of other power resources, including a smart power battery clock real time and these resources are closely linked and one could affect apparent power problems.

    If the DC IN is blue, this means that the AC adapter is connected properly and the power supply correctly. If this is not the case, the adapter may be faulty or there is a problem with the electronic power supply on the motherboard.

    So in this case, the power adapter must be tested if you are sure that the adapter is working properly, then there must be a problem with the motherboard to 100%.
