I love this charger and would like to buy another one for backup. It's been "temporarily unavailable" for a while now. Can you please hurry up and restock this?

Amazing battery life!

I am not accustomed to writing reviews and replying to company surveys; however, I was keen to write this review of my new T550 to pass on to others my surprising discoveries with this computer.
I work as a translator and the most important features for me are a good keyboard and a better than average battery life.
I have owned two other “top brand” laptop computers in the past.
Both of them were inadequate in terms of keyboard. To be honest, I had not done any research on either and I bought those computers based solely on speed and screen resolution and brand.
This time around I did a significant amount of research on the internet before making my purchase. I have certainly not been disappointed by the keyboard on my new T550. It is extremely comfortable with responsive keys that facilitate accuracy and speed.
I opted for a 256GB Solid State Hard Drive and 8 GB Memory, so I am more than satisfied with the speed of my T550.
Leaving the best for last, and this really is the icing on the cupcake, the surprise has been the battery life.
I upgraded the battery to an Integrated 3-cell (44Wh)
All the sites that I researched, and the Lenovo site itself, gave the battery life for the T550 at between 10 and 14 hours. I figured that even the bottom of this range would suffice.
The thing is: I am tired of fighting for a seat next to an electricity outlet.
Surprise, surprise: I actually can’t believe it still, and I have waited before rushing to write this, I have had my new T550 for over 2 months now and I regularly get over 24 hours of battery life.!!!
How? I simply work only on 75% brightness!
I am not employed by Lenovo so I certainly cannot, and am not, giving any kind of warranty. You should check with your dealer whether this is a freak or a normal situation.
Anyway, I am over the moon with this performance.
The only minor disappointment with my new T550 is that I added few dollars for a Fingerprint Reader; however, when I downloaded Windows 10, this function was disabled and I have been unable to reactivate it. Perhaps I will have more time soon to try and get my fingerprint reader to work.
