I wonder if anyone would mind commenting on a problem? I noticed
that recently my Asus Eee has only been getting up to about 65% of
charge, and I assumed this is a battery problem (I think it's about
18 months old). But then I have noticed a couple of times, that
even
Hello Owain,
Yep, that sounds like a borked battery. I find that lappy batteries can
start giving problems almost from the get-go, but a life-span from around
18-24 months seems to be the norm. It's inconvenient to say the least, but
luckily Eee batteries are readily available. A quick look on
Thanks, Jan. It's not a fortune, but it's too much to spend only to
find out it's something else

That is what happened to me. Now I don't know whether I was sent a dud
replacement or it is somerthing else that is wrong. :-(

Li batteries have good charge densities but don't last that
long unless they are charged and discharged evenly (apparently).
It's even more complicated than that...
Li batteries suffer permanent degradation with time. The rate of
degradation is increased with heat and with charge.
So it
I can second that. I had my mac book battery - that was dying anyway -
completely die on me after leaving it in the car for a week over the
Christmas period last year. The combination of the cold weather and the
lack of charge caused the battery to go below a threshold, and hence,
the
However, I believe that this
minimum charge threshold is actually built into the battery control
electronics rather than the battery itself.
Yes, it is.
That is to say, If I could have bypassed the controller and charged it
back up manually, I believe that I would have got some further use
