Is there any way to disable the battery whitelist or otherwise get the device to work with 'unauthorized' external batteries as OEM external batteries are no longer produced by Lenovo or sold by any vendor including ifixit itself? I've had some that worked for close to a year now up until yesterday, when the laptop suddenly decided they are no longer official.
