Battery Packs
The primary battery pack charges when it is inside the battery bay
and the notebook is connected to external power. External power
can be supplied through an AC adapter, an optional Port
Replicator, an optional Advanced Port Replicator, or an optional
Automobile Power Adapter/Charger.
The battery pack in the travel battery caddy charges when it is
attached to the notebook and the notebook is connected to
external power. External power can be supplied through an AC
adapter or an optional Automobile Power Adapter/Charger.
Because the travel battery pack covers the docking connector, the
travel battery pack cannot be used or charged while a Port
Replicator or an Advanced Port Replicator is in use.
Battery packs can also be charged in the optional Universal
Charger. The optional Aircraft Power Adapter can be used to run
the notebook, but it cannot be used to charge a battery pack.
While the battery pack is charging, the battery light on the
notebook is on. The light turns off when the battery pack is fully
charged.
