No, was a last breathe.

Now i have BAT1 totally died, in a way that BAT0 does not load and if i try
to suspend the laptop, it dies if i unplug the power cord.

Looking araund i've found:

I've tried to reset EC, with no luck.


Currently i have:

And looking at website:

	https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/it/it/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-t-series-laptops/thinkpad-t470s/downloads/ds120418-bios-update-utility-bootable-cd-for-windows-10-64-bit-81-64-bit-7-32-bit-64-bit-linux-thinkpad-t470s?category=BIOS

seems just the latest.


I can try to ''reflesh'' the BIOS/EC?

Someone have some other hints?


Thanks.
