[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 964813"] The battery is, I think, Lithium Ion. LIon batteries don't take well to full discharges. They last longer if you keep them above 65-70%. My wife's laptop is plugged in all the time, we only use it on battery about once a month to let the meter recalibrate. All LIon batteries start to lose capacity after two years from manufacture, no matter how you treat it, losing capacity slowly for a couple of years then more rapidly after that. [/QUOTE]
