It fits the YB-Q501F, including the ZA1Y0061US variant. OEM part numbers L16D3P31 and L16C3P31 both cross to this cell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYoga A12 detachable platform:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The Yoga A12 runs a shared battery rail whether docked to its keyboard cover or used as a standalone tablet. The connector pinout and BMS handshake are identical across YB-Q501F regional variants, so one cell covers the full A12 lineup.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell through full charge and discharge cycles on a Yoga A12 unit. The BMS accepted the cell without fault flags, the fuel gauge initialised cleanly, and charge current stepped down correctly at the top-of-charge threshold.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-install recalibration on the Yoga A12:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting a new cell, let the tablet discharge fully until it hibernates, then charge uninterrupted to 100%. This forces the fuel gauge IC to relearn the cell's actual capacity curve and clears the inaccurate health warning Android or Windows logs after every cell swap.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eYoga A12 shutting down at 20–30% battery shown on screen\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis happens when the cell voltage drops below the BMS cutoff threshold under load before the fuel gauge reaches zero. The Yoga A12 draws a combined CPU, display, and wireless load that can pull the cell voltage down sharply from around 3.6V. The fuel gauge IC hasn't yet mapped where the new cell's voltage cliff actually sits. Running two full discharge-to-hibernate then uninterrupted charge cycles recalibrates the gauge and moves the shutdown point back to the correct voltage floor near 3.2V per cell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eAndroid or Windows reporting this battery as unknown or 0% immediately after fitting\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe OS reads battery identity and state-of-charge from the cell's EEPROM via the BMS data line. When a replacement cell is first connected, the EEPROM data doesn't match the profile stored from the previous cell, so the OS flags it as unknown or reports 0%. This is not a fault with the cell or the tablet. Power the Yoga A12 off completely, leave it connected to the charger for 15 minutes, then boot normally — this gives the BMS time to authenticate the new cell and push a valid state-of-charge reading to the OS. If the unknown flag persists, run one full discharge cycle to clear the stale EEPROM cache.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43409690984538,"sku":"BWCS-LVA120NB-1","price":68.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43409691017306,"sku":"BWCS-LVA120NB-2","price":80.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43409691050074,"sku":"BWCS-LVA120NB-3","price":88.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-LVA120NB-1.webp?v=1779580473","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/lenovo-yoga-a12-replacement-battery-38v-10000mah-li-polymer","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
