Weird battery issue

Just recently did a reformat on my thinkpad, t61.
The battery is always been decent, about a year old now. No problems, I roam and use the battery, for about an hour to 2 hours depending on use. Now, I charge it to the 98-100 percent, go for about 15min, and no warning whatsoever, it shuts down, the battery low flashes and it powers down. This has happened twice. I checked the battery health and it says it is good. I checked the actual physical connectors...
When I power it back, it charges the battery as if its drained....really odd...

Anyone experience this?
