Hi,

I've had this laptop for about two years now and its almost always been plugged in so I havent noticed, but when its on battery it barely lasts an hour just using Chrome and light youtube watching. I've disabled the GPU, undervolted, and have maximum battery saving options turned on. I saw another thread where someone was asked to post the battery report so Im hoping someone can help me out too. I dont recall doing the battery calibration when I first got it (and I assume its too late to do that now)



Full charge capacity is a lot lower than design, so is it time for a new battery?

    The battery wear is 50%. The battery power is probably not enough for computationally intensive applications like games and videos. I suggest to replace the battery.
