On the Dell laptops on our account, the Latitude C610 and C640, WMI does not report the same model number that is printed on the sticker on the case of the battery. These are the original OEM batteries and not aftermarket.

Sticker on battery:

D/SN JP-07H508-48330-1CT-3MLT

D/PN 07H508 | C/O JP | Rev.A00

Printed on battery in white ink:

Type 75UYF

WMI:

DeviceID=62433Sony Corp.LIP8084DLP

As near as I can tell, the sticker indicates model 7H508, the white ink indicates 75UYF and WMI indicates model 62433 or P8084 or perhaps some other 5 character permutation of the string after the dot.

None of the character sequences that are reported in Win32_Battery seem to match anything that is printed on the sticker or anywhere on the battery case for these Dell models.

We have checked our batteries manually as well as using the relevance and we did not discover any that are on the list of effected batteries.

I was wondering how this is working out for others? I offered the Analysis out for our Console Operators to try out and I am having mixed reviews. One CO says she is seeing Desktop GX showing up as affected computers.

This is working well for us. At least initial impressions are good. It seems to be doing exactly as it states. Good work!

We have Dell GX Desktops in our environment but do not see them showing up as relevant. Only seeing Dell Laptops.
