    It is NOT meant to be a tent mode hinge design. Accordingly, it should be opened no further than about 45° past vertical or 135° relative to the keyboard.  Moving the lid beyond this point and opening/closing the lid too much creates a lot of stress on the hinge mounts and too much repeated flexing of LCD video/cam cable passing through the hinge area.
