>>>>I never before looked at the battery status of my laptop. Now, after changing the battery, I can't go 10 minutes without looking at how much time it has left. Since this morning I work on the battery only, not plugged in. Just wanted to see that if it can hold the charge. I notice that the time left on the battery changes depending on how many applications I have open. It goes from 2 hrs to 5 hrs. Right now, at 91% remaining, it still has about 5 hours.
>>>>Hopefully I will be able to stop monitoring the battery level and start focusing on other important things :)
>>>
>>>From what I've seen on american TV, whether the battery charge will hold mostly depends on prosecution, and how they built the case.

>>The case is almost always plastic, but usually high-grade. The battery is locked up forever, it's a dangerous offender.
