@gbraad yes, it's the 370. The built in digitizer is a AES, the stylus is a wacom bamboo first gen, with AAAA battery.

@davidrevoy At least this allows use of 'your own' pen!

Currently using a Galaxy Tab with EMR pen(s); staedtler noris and the wacom one.

How often do you replace the (4A) batteries?

@gbraad I have it only since a big month, i'm rarely using.
So far, still the same battery. I'm also curious about the lifetime of them .
i travel with a spare one in case of.

Yes EMR tech is the holy grail of digitiser, on samsung laptop and wacoms (and few other, an acer, etc) have it. But too hard to find one supported on Gnu/Linux and it was my priority.

@davidrevoy newer machines with EMR is an issue. we still have two lx230t here as my wife also now understands the appeal.

@davidrevoy @gbraad

Bamboo ink first gen.
The only downside of this pen is 4A battery. I tried to find rechargeable one in my local market but without success.

I also use one for math at collage 😜 with Dell Latitude 7390 2 in 1. (Of course on GNU/Linux with xournal++) Actually this pen supports not only AES 1.0 but also some M$ protocol you can switch by holding two buttons.

Finding information about protocol support in both digitizers and stylus was hard...

@itmodulo hard to find these rechargeable...

... but sometimes you will find them as 6 total inside a rechargeable 9V battery. check online if that is the case in your region. I did find them a long time back here in China

@davidrevoy I know someone who has the exact same laptop. Is the 1st gen wacom bamboo the on’y one to work with it ?

@Lanza no, any stylus adapted for WACOM AES tech will work on the digitiser. Lenovo has some too afaik.
