Now nearly 1 yr, in 38 charging cycles, the battery capacity of my T42
has dropped from 4700mAh (designed) to 4200mAh (fully charged).
Projecting this degradation into next yr, it will be practically giving
me only 2-hr running by next X'mas.
To be honest, I've been using the battery with great care and have
removed the battery while running on AC. And 38 charge cycles in 1 yr
does NOT seem too frequent.
How's yours? Really an IBM (not Lenovo) quality issue?
Thanks,
