Your X7 batteries are high efficiency lithium-ion batteries that are “hot swappable.” That is, if
you have two batteries installed, you can replace one battery while the computer operates on
the other battery. With this capability, you do not have to shut down the computer or interrupt
your current operating session in order to replace a battery.
The batteries come in two different capacities: 2950 mAh (standard) and 5900 mAh (high-
capacity).

Figure 8 shows a single X7 battery. Each battery has three locking slots that fit into three
corresponding hooks on the battery latch. A multi-LED battery charge indicator, or “fuel gauge”
is located next to the fuel gauge button. The fuel gauge consists of 5 LEDs and each LED
represents approximately 20% of the total charge of the battery as follows:
LED #5 - 80-100% On steady
LED #4 - 60-79% On steady
LED #3 - 40-59% On steady
LED #2 - 21-40% On steady
LED #1 - 00-10% Flashing (far left LED)

The fuel gauge indicators are not visible when the battery is installed in the computer. When a
battery is disconnected, you can press the
fuel gauge button
to activate the LEDs and check
the current charge level.
