RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. (AP) - Computer maker Lenovo Inc. on Thursday recalled about 100,000 lithium-ion batteries used in ThinkPad laptops after receiving four reports of the Sanyo-built batteries overheating.
In one case, a consumer suffered minor eye irritation, the company said.
The Chinese PC maker, which has its world headquarters in Research Triangle Park, said consumers should stop using the batteries immediately. The batteries can overheat and pose a fire hazard if the laptop is dropped, Lenovo said.
