4. Finding the Right Item
top of page
How to use the QuickSearch:
Finding the product you're looking for couldn't be easier. We provide you with
two convenient methods to quickly locate the right battery or AC adapter for
your portable device: QuickSearch and Browse.
QuickSearch
Our search engine lets you search by any combination of product names and part
numbers. Simply type in the manufacturer name and the model of your device (or
just the model), or type in the part number from your existing battery or AC
adapter. Our powerful search engine will give you a list of all of the matches
from our extensive product database.
Here are some examples:
Searching by Manufacturer Name: Type "IBM" to show all notebooks and other
devices made by IBM. You can then select a specific device from the list (for
example, Thinkpad 560) to show all peripherals (batteries, AC adapters, etc)
for that device.
You can also type any part of the name (for example, just "IB" or just "BM") to
get the same result.
Searching by Model Name: Type "Thinkpad 560" to see all peripherals available
for the Thinkpad 560. You can also type any part of the model name, such as
"560" or "Think" for a broader search. Entering "560" will find the IBM
Thinkpad 560 and any other device that has 560 as part of its model number.
Entering "Think" will find all Thinkpad models and any other device that has
"Think" as part of its model name.
Searching by the Part Number: Entering IBM battery part number "60G0423" will
display that specific IBM battery. You can search using any part numbers you
have available: AC adapter part numbers, battery part numbers, even the
computer or device part number. You can also enter any part of the part number
(for example, just "60G" to do a broader search).
Once you've located the item you're looking for click on the "Add" button to
add the product to your order or click on the "Details" link to get more
extensive product information and an image of the product.
If you want to change the quantity of an item you've already added to your
order, go to the Order Box which is at the top of your screen. Type the new
quantity into the space next to the item (where the current quantity ordered
is) and then click on the "I changed the quantities" button inside the Order
Box to update your totals.
When you're ready to complete your order, click on the "Check Out" button
inside the Order Box.
