I know that 100% of batteries are made in China, but I'd like to buy one from an European shop. I need a battery for a pretty old laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad W540) which works fantastically well with Linux.

So, any links are appreciated. Thanks!

1001 Piles Batteries is a French vendor also established in a few other european countries and in China, i regularly visit their brick and mortar location but they also have an online shop. They have what you need, not sure if it's economical to ship to your location though. https://www.1001piles.com/searchengine/result/?q=Lenovo+Thinkpad+W540

This is great, especially because I'll be in Paris for work in April. Thanks for the suggestion!
