|
<p>One possible challenge with a refurbished laptop is that there can be heating
|
|
issues. All LC230 units that we sell are well tested for such issues to ensure
|
|
that the laptop's CPU cools well during heavy CPU usage. This is done by
|
|
ensuring two things:</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>The CPU fan is clean of dust and other foreign material that might affect
|
|
its ability to offer good CPU cooling.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>The CPU fan's heatsink is able to conduct heat properly</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<p>Check out what a dirty and clean fan looks like.</p>
|
|
<div style="text-align: center">
|
|
<figure style="display: inline-block" >
|
|
<img src="/images/dirty-fan.jpg" width="250" />
|
|
<figcaption> A dirty fan! </figcaption>
|
|
</figure>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<figure style="display: inline-block" >
|
|
<img src="/images/clean-fan.jpg" width="250" />
|
|
<figcaption> A very clean fan! </figcaption>
|
|
</figure>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you face any heating issues (or a noisy fan) a few months after purchasing a
|
|
LC230, one thing that would help is cleaning the fan using an air blower.</p>
|
|
<p>Here is what a clean CPU fan achieves:</p>
|
|
<figure style="box-shadow: 0px 0px 20px #888888; margin-bottom: -2em;" >
|
|
<img src="/images/htop.png" />
|
|
</figure>
|
|
|
|
<p><br></p>
|
|
<figure style="box-shadow: 0px 0px 20px #888888;" >
|
|
<img src="/images/stress-test.png" />
|
|
</figure>
|
|
|
|
<p>As you can see, even under very heavy CPU utilisation (and system load), the
|
|
CPU fan running at <strong>5380 RPM</strong> is able to cool down the CPU to keep the core
|
|
temperature around +84° C.</p>
|
|
<h2 id="battery-management">Battery management<a class="headerlink" href="#battery-management" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h2>
|
|
<p>In case your current LC230 battery does not give you sufficient backup, you can
|
|
purchase a new 6-cell or 9-cell battery. The part numbers are as follows:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Lenovo Thinkpad 6-cell Battery 44+ (Part Number: 0A36306)</li>
|
|
<li>Lenovo ThinkPad 9-cell Battery 44++ (Part Number: 0A36307)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h2 id="swapping-the-keyboard">Swapping the keyboard<a class="headerlink" href="#swapping-the-keyboard" title="Permanent link">¶</a></h2>
|
|
<p>It is possible to use the Lenovo Classic keyboard (last seen on the X220
|
|
Thinkpad model) with the X230. This involves three steps:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Modifying the keyboard connector</li>
|
|
<li>Flashing a modified BIOS (over the default Lenovo one)</li>
|
|
<li>Replacing the palm-rest with an x220 one</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>We will be glad to help you with this modification. The steps are detailed on the
|
|
<a href="http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Install_Classic_Keyboard_on_xx30_Series_ThinkPads">Thinkwiki</a>.</p>
