Maurice,
Thanks for your input, as per my opinion you can not fit any type of Sockets for this battery in latest slim Laptops.you can use only battery with sleeve on it.none of laptops having Recharging circuit in any laptops.

A simple solution is Just buy an cr2032 holder for pcb mounting. You can find them also on a lot of pc motherboards so resuse from an defect one is also possible. you can Just soldering the old wires on the throuhole pins.
And use some shrinkwap off isolationtape.
You can also find cr2032 battery houders on some verry small smd ledstrips.
There exist also recharge variants of the cr2032 bat they have an different name, forgot wich name.

Mark J,
Sometime we have to disassemble the laptop to remove the Motherboard & you can find it underneath,but in new generation laptops they don't use RTC battery separately, it is getting power from Main backup Battery itself, When you unplug the main battery it does a cmos reset. & replacing this main backup battery is not economical.

Yogesh Panchal I meant the location of the rtc battery on the motherboard. Not the availability of them for purchase.

Waleed,
It depends on what material used for battery, I have easily soldered 18650 Batteries
with nickle plate but material in this coin is like Stainless steel.i tried with scratching it & using different types of flux also but it not worked.

John Runng,
Light bulbs will light up intensively if feed proper required Voltage (Here in-terms of knowledge)Lol....
CR2032 is Non-Rechargeable,you can not recharge it.
you can put any 3v battery using resistor if installation space have room for it.
date & time can be Change in BIOS Setting. if it miss match you may have option of skip & continue or BIOS Setup. Proper Date & time is necessary because if you have Licensed Software installed it keeps track as per your computer date. if not found proper Date in your computer your license may get expired.

Erik Blankers,
On-line electronic products are always problematic, because there is no standardize form factor.
