It covers OEM part numbers including 0A36290, 42T4943, 45N1058, and related variants. Install it when the original cell no longer holds sufficient charge for portable use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThinkPad E120 and Edge E120 compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share the same 11.1V three-cell architecture, connector pinout, and BMS handshake protocol — meaning one cell covers the full variant range including the 30434NC, 30434SC, and 30434TC chassis without modification.\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 a ThinkPad E120 unit. The BMS negotiated correctly with the EC, charge current tapered normally at the top of the curve, and the protection circuit tripped cleanly at the low-voltage threshold.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-install discharge cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting this cell, 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 this platform.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBIOS reporting poor battery health immediately after fitting a new cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe ThinkPad EC reads health data from the battery's EEPROM and compares it against stored charge history from the previous cell. A brand-new cell has no accumulated cycle data, so the EC flags it as degraded — this is a data mismatch, not a fault with the replacement. Running the BIOS battery learn cycle writes fresh baseline data from the new cell. After one full discharge-to-hibernate and an uninterrupted charge to 100%, the health indicator updates and the warning clears.\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 against the new cell's actual discharge curve. The gauge loses accuracy under combined CPU and display load — voltage drops faster than the IC predicts, and the protection circuit cuts power before the displayed percentage reaches zero. It is not a faulty cell. Run two to three full discharge-to-hibernate cycles to let the IC map the real capacity curve. After calibration, the cutoff point will align with the displayed percentage at or below 5%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43409811144794,"sku":"BWCS-LVE120NB-1","price":77.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43409811177562,"sku":"BWCS-LVE120NB-2","price":91.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43409811210330,"sku":"BWCS-LVE120NB-3","price":101.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-LVE120NB-1.webp?v=1779581043","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/lenovo-thinkpad-e120-30434nc-replacement-battery-111v-4400mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
