When it comes to good battery life for your laptop Lenovo delivers. Their newest product the Lenovo Lithium Ion Laptop Battery has a life span of up to 6 hours, which is quite good. The charge time is a mere 4 hours. It works with the Lenovo ThinkPad Notebooks Z60m Series T60 Series. I think we can all agree that the problem with laptops is the battery life. In fact portable devices have had a long line of history of problems with battery life and still to this day we are constantly looking to improve battery life. I’m happy to see that Lenovo has addressed the battery life issue and is constantly trying to improve the quality of battery life for their users.
Pros: battery last 6 hours, charge time is slightly more than 4.3 hours, light weight so it doesn’t add much extra weight to the laptop and comes with a one year warranty cause in a year I’m sure Lenovo will have a better battery out with a more improved life span this time next year.
Cons: well it only works with the Lenovo ThinkPad Notebooks Z60m Series T60 Series, so if you have a different series number you need to look elsewhere.
Conclusion: This is a must buy for anyone with the Lenovo ThinkPad Notebooks Z60m Series T60 Series. With its easy charge time and 6 hour battery life this battery knows how to stay up fighting to the very end.
I give this product a 5/5

The Chief PDR Universal Dual Arm Wall Mount is a fabulous product for anyone looking to mount that brand new small flat screen TV. The Chief PDR Universal Dual Arm Wall Mount hold up to 200 lbs, which is pretty good for its size. It’s easy to mount, especially if you don’t have any experience with mounting something on the wall like I did. The lockable latch gives off a great piece of mind that your flat screen won’t fall down on you as your watching movies.
Pros: easy to mount, hold’s up to 200 lbs, the arm rotates about 37 inches each way, and built in cable management means no wires will be throwing you off. The Wall protection rubber makes sure that you won’t scratch up your wall when you fold it in.
Cons: Don’t have any. The only problem might be if you want to mount a flat screen that weighs more than 200 lbs, then you need to look elsewhere.
Conclusion: This is a must buy if you’re looking to mount your TV on the wall and change its angle at will. It’s sturdy, it’s easy to mount, and it allows for you to be in charge of it. I would love to see them come out with a remote that lets you move it around from the comfort of your seat. But overall I can easily say that you will be extremely happy with this arm mount.
I give this product 5/5

This allows for you to easily print out any document, presentation that you might need in a matter of minutes.
