    Can you guys with the T61 check if the changes you make in Battery Stretch affect the registry keys under

    HKLM\Software\IBM\PWRMGR\Data\ExtremeBatteryLife.

    The default for my T60 is everything's set to 1 except for EnableTempSettings

    HA! I've figured how to enable Battery Stretch on the T60 I bet it works with all Thinkpads using the latest Powermanager.

    Go to HKEY_Current_User\Software\IBM\POWMGR\Data\ExtremeBatteryLife

    Look for the IsCapable key and change the value to 1. You might have to reboot then just check your powermanager.
