It uses OEM part number L13D1P32 and connects directly to the tablet's main board charge IC. Dimensions are 121.00 × 99.85 × 2.90mm — confirm these against your existing cell before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIdeaPad A8 and A5500 compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share the same flat-cell form factor, 3.8V nominal voltage rail, and ZIF connector orientation. The L13D1P32 part number covers the full group — the BMS handshake requirements are identical across the A8, A8-50, A5500, and TAB3 8 variants.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell through charge and discharge cycles on an IdeaPad A8-50. The BMS accepted the first charge without error, the protection circuit tripped correctly at low-voltage cutoff, and cell temperature stayed within spec throughout the load test.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel gauge recalibration after swap:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting this battery, run the tablet down to automatic shutoff — not a manual power-off — then charge in one uninterrupted session to 100%. This forces the fuel gauge IC to recalibrate against the new cell and clears the inaccurate percentage readings that appear immediately after a battery swap.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eTablet shutting down at 15–25% remaining after battery replacement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe IdeaPad A8 and A5500 combine a high-brightness display with active WiFi — that combined load pulls current fast enough to expose a steep voltage cliff in a degraded or unrecalibrated cell. A new cell with an uncalibrated fuel gauge hits that cliff before the percentage readout catches up, so the tablet cuts power while showing charge remaining. The fix is a single full discharge-to-shutoff cycle followed by an uninterrupted charge to 100%. After one complete cycle the fuel gauge maps the new cell's voltage curve and the premature shutdowns stop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eFast charging unavailable after fitting a new L13D1P32 cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe IdeaPad A8 series uses a proprietary charge negotiation sequence between the charge IC and the battery's BMS. On a fresh cell the BMS has not yet completed an accepted charge cycle, so the charge IC defaults to standard rate as a precaution. This is not a fault with the new battery. Plug into the original Lenovo charger — not a third-party adapter — and allow the first full charge to complete without interruption. Fast charge availability returns once the IC and BMS have completed that initial handshake cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43426043461722,"sku":"BWCS-LVA800SL-1","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43426043494490,"sku":"BWCS-LVA800SL-2","price":38.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43426043527258,"sku":"BWCS-LVA800SL-3","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-LVA800SL-1.webp?v=1779930219","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/lenovo-ideapad-a8-replacement-battery-38v-4250mah-li-polymer","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
