Hi I just got a laptop a few days ago pretty much the same time I joined this forums. It is a Neo Basic 2235
Core 2 Duo 2.0ghz
2gb Ram
320gb hard drive.
wifi/lan/modem but no bluetooth.
Vista home basic sp1
Here's the problem, it will only last less than 1hour when watching videos with wifi enabled. When browsing with multi-tabs, it will last around 1hour and 20 minutes. I believe that the bundled battery is the lowest cell possible but I was expecting somewhere between 1 hour and 40 minutes on video or at least 2 hours with normal use. However, I am not satisfied on both.
I also checked the dc input below and it reads 65watts max.
So it is safe to assume that my laptop will use only that much power since it works fine when plugged in the outlet without the battery.
Am I missing something or is this just the way it is?
