Product: Elitebook 840 G2
My Note says it support secondary battery (two different battery) both in the power management panel and HP Notebook brochure. What I don't understand is where can you put the secondary battery in it? There isn't any extra space to put any second battery. Can someone explain this to me?

I just got the 2nd battery for my 840, let it charge for about 5 hours, and connected it to my laptop but it doesn't seem to register. I have the battery locked, so it should be all properly connected. Any tips on getting it to work?
