It replaces OEM part numbers L10P6Y21, L09M6Y23, and L08M6Y21. Install it when the original cell no longer holds a usable charge or fails to register in the BIOS.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eE46 series compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The E46, E46A, E46G, and E46L share the same battery bay dimensions, connector pinout, and BMS communication protocol — all four accept this cell without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this battery on an E46 chassis and confirmed the BMS handshake initialised correctly, charge acceptance registered across all cells, and the protection circuit tripped cleanly at the low-voltage threshold.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-install calibration on the E46:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting, run one full discharge to hibernate-cutoff, then charge uninterrupted to 100%. This resets the BIOS battery learn cycle and clears the inaccurate health warning that appears after every cell swap on ThinkPad Edge hardware.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBIOS reporting battery health as poor immediately after fitting a new cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThinkPad Edge firmware stores charge cycle data and health metrics in EEPROM on the battery's controller board. When a new cell goes in, the BIOS reads that EEPROM as blank or mismatched and flags the battery as degraded — even though the cell is new. This is a firmware state problem, not a hardware fault. Run the full discharge-to-hibernate then uninterrupted full-charge sequence once, and the BIOS learn cycle rewrites the health estimate against the new cell's actual data.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eLaptop shuts down abruptly at 20–30% charge shown on screen\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis happens when the fuel gauge IC has not yet calibrated to the new cell's voltage curve. The OS reads a state-of-charge percentage mapped to the old cell's worn discharge profile, so the displayed percentage and actual cell voltage diverge. Under combined CPU and display load, the cell hits the BMS low-voltage cutoff while the screen still shows 20–25% remaining. Complete two full calibration cycles — discharge to hibernate-cutoff each time — and the fuel gauge IC recalibrates to match the new cell, typically resolving the discrepancy by the third charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43409808031834,"sku":"BWCS-LVE460NB-1","price":104.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43409808064602,"sku":"BWCS-LVE460NB-2","price":119.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43409808097370,"sku":"BWCS-LVE460NB-3","price":130.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-LVE460NB-1.webp?v=1779580993","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/lenovo-e46-replacement-battery-111v-4400mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
