Lithium CMOS battery replaces the RTC backup cell in ThinkPad X61 motherboards

  • Battery typeLithium

  • Lithium coin cell maintains BIOS clock and settings
  • Supplied as a single tested CMOS unit
  • Designed for RTC backup on laptop mainboards
  • New condition ensures reliable first-time fit

ThinkPad X61 CMOS replacement

This lithium CMOS battery is designed for the Lenovo ThinkPad X61 motherboard. It supplies the low-voltage power that keeps BIOS settings and the real-time clock active when the main battery is removed. The unit is tested before shipping and arrives ready to install.

For owners with cleared BIOS or clock drift

It suits anyone whose X61 loses date, time or boot configuration after power loss. Builders working on other ThinkPad models or on desktop boards should look elsewhere because the connector and form factor are specific to this laptop series.

Direct swap restores firmware retention

One battery provides the capacity needed for normal CMOS operation over its service life. It does not power the main system, charge the primary pack or replace a dead laptop battery.

Questions about this item

Does this CMOS battery plug directly into a ThinkPad X61 motherboard without an extra cable?

The battery is designed as a direct replacement for the ThinkPad X61 CMOS slot, so it fits the onboard connector without an additional cable.

Will this lithium CMOS cell keep the system clock running on an original ThinkPad X61 that still uses the factory power circuit?

Yes, the lithium chemistry matches the original specification and works with the existing X61 power circuitry to maintain the real-time clock.

After installing the battery, how can I confirm the ThinkPad X61 is holding BIOS settings correctly?

Power on the laptop, set the date and time in BIOS, shut down completely for several minutes, then restart — if the clock and settings remain, the CMOS battery is functioning.
