hello all,
bought a Fujitsu Lifebook LH531 in June 2012. This is my first laptop so very excited with it.
It has Intel Pentium B960, 2GB Samsung Ram and 320GB WD hard Disk.
It was working great and used to give ~ 5 hours of battery for the first 5-8 charge cycles.
But then it suddenly dropped to around ~ 3 hours. I thought maybe it was some mistake, but it really depletes after 3 hours.
I searched a bit and downloaded HWMonitor and to my horror it showed battery wear of 28% a few days ago. Now it shows battery wear at 31%. Design capacity = 4400mah, charge capacity = 2950 mah!
I have had about 15-20 charge cycles till now. I charge when battery is around 15% charge till around 95% then disconnect charger. only first 2-3 charges i used to charge 100% drop to 5% as i read its good for battery in first few cycles. It was working fine for 5-6 charge cycles after that.
I havent abused the battery at all, never left it at charging more than 1 and half hours.
Searching i found some thing called battery reset by @sunny27 :
