Applications
The IBM 02K6719 Quick Charger was produced as an IBM-branded accessory for ThinkPad laptop users who needed a dedicated, faster charging solution for their spare Li-Ion or NiMH battery packs — allowing a battery to be charged independently from the laptop itself. This type of external quick charger was popular with ThinkPad users who kept a second battery and swapped packs during travel or long work sessions, a common practice with late-1990s and early-2000s ThinkPad lines before higher-capacity batteries became standard. The charger supports both Li-Ion and NiMH chemistry, reflecting the transition period when IBM was shifting ThinkPad battery packs from NiMH to Li-Ion. Today this charger is sought by ThinkPad collectors and users maintaining older ThinkPad hardware who need an original IBM charging solution for compatible battery packs.
This IBM 02K6719 ThinkPad Li-Ion/NiMH Quick Battery Charger is new and unused in its original Options by IBM box. The box label shows a pack date of January 12, 2001, so this unit has been in storage for an extended period. The charger and its cables appear to have never been used. The original box shows some shelf wear consistent with long-term storage, but the charger itself looks clean and undamaged. Please note that Li-Ion and NiMH battery chargers stored for many years may benefit from a charge cycle verification before relying on them in a production setting. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions. Please note: We have multiple units in stock — yours may not be the one shown in the photos, however, it will be similar in condition and function.
