On a full charge, we are only getting 1hr 15min on average running
Windows 95. Doesn't even get close to 2hr as stated in the manual.

| 2246.3 | Battery questions | SLOAN::HOM | Mon Feb 03 1997 15:33 | 15 | |
Battery charging circuitry can be fairly complicated - especially if the charging circuit stores as data, the amount of energy supplied to the battery (in order to predict the amount of energy left). Can the charging circuit be fooled if battery packs are swapped during the charging process? With two batteries and no external rechargert you need to charge up one battery, swap it and then charge up the second. Gim PS - I was able to use a VP535 for 2.5 hours running Word and Excel on a trip. I made sure that the laptop was fully charge a few minutes before boarding the plane. | |||||
