Well, HWINFO32 got the Chemistry correct, which is critical because that's what chargers are suppose to use to determine if they should try to charge the battery, or simply power the laptop.

5.1.30. DeviceChemistry() (0x22) (...) Note: The following is a partial list of chemistries and their expected abbreviations. These abbreviations are NOT case sensitive. Lead Acid PbAc Lithium Ion LION Nickel Cadmium NiCd Nickel Metal Hydride NiMH Nickel Zinc NiZn Rechargeable Alkaline-Manganese RAM Zinc Air ZnAr Lithium Polymer LiP
