[Resolved]  Lenovo 3000 N100 — Laptop Battery

Hi,

I purchased a Lenovo brand new 3000 N100 Laptop in November 2006. Product ID: 0768A35
In Jan 2008, one day the battery of my laptop suddenly konded off. Before it stopped working completely it used to gie me about 2.5 hours of backup. As the warranty was only for 1 year, so nobody at Lenovo (Call Center and all serice stations) is actually listening. They only have one standard statement, "If it is out of Warranty, You have to buy a new battery costing Rs. 6, 800/-)
In few of the forums I saw that lots of customers had similar complaint with this series of Lenoo Laptops. I doubt like others if they have pre-programmed that the battery will stop working after the warranty of 1 year gets expired.
Obviously Lenovo does not sell laptops saying that the Battery will not last for even 2 years. It is not about Warranty not actie, but the real issue is the product has to function properly even after warranty. Nobody would buy a laptop if we need to invest on battery every 14-16 months.

Im trying if someone can help. If nothing works I may even File a Lawsuit against Lenovo under Consumer Court.

Thanks

I have called in IBM for the same reason, they asked me to send an email to which they said they would reply. It has been a week and not one dared to reply yet.

we need to sue the company for manufacturing these kinds of quality less products.
me too suffering of the same problem
I agree 100% with all the above statements. Battery dead, ac adapter died also after 9 monthes from battery going dead. Machine will not stay on for more than 5 minutes if battery is in and running from AC power. No help from Lenovo. It figures.
Hi,
I've gone through exactly the same problems as most people here. I purchased my 3000N100 Notebook in October 2006 and within the warranty period the battery went dead. I had a battery replaced within warranty. The replaced battery worked for about a year and then, that also went dead. Ever since, I've been running it on A/C Power. Now, as a recent development, my computer suddenly shuts down while I'm working. It is extremely painful to use this laptop and I've realized what a waste of money it is!

My lenovo 3000N100 battey has conked off in 16 months ( bought sep 07), and i have been asked to pay 6000/- for a replacement ( as it is past one year).

Only now i realise that a lap top manintenance is not cheap at all.

If we keep changing batteries like this every 16-18 months ( in some cases even lesser), then its high time the manufacturers clearly indicate a longer time line for battery life.( may be 5 years atleast)

It is now being told by the service center that 14-16 month battery life is COMMON!!


Very high price for a COMMON phenomenon...

Is IBM lenovo LISTENING??
i too agree on the issues mentioned above.
i had purchased 3000 N100 in sep' 07, and battery got problem few days after the warranty expire, shop keeper said its out of warranty now. now hav applied for the replacement under the link mentioned by vivek. but now they are saying, only those laptops which are purchased in jan- feb 07 are eligible for battery replacement. do u hav any further info regarding this?
is thr any one whose battery got replaced n who doesnt fall under the span mentioned?
plz help.
Same problem!!!

Hi guys,
I bought Lenovo 3000 N100 0768 laptop in 2007. Since then I have changed two batteries. One was within wanrranty. But the second one is busted within 9 months. Not only that, since then I had to change my LCD screen also.
I kindly request all of you to tell everybody they should not think of Lenovo laptops. All of you should spread this to thousands of people. Let us all bring Lenovo Management's attention to our demeanor of the Lenovo Company.

PLEASE DON'T BUY LENOVO LAPTOPS...THEY SUCK !!
