@op, ur chance of getting an original brand new battery in nigeria is like 1% and they are not cheap. ur laptop doesn't have a problem, the problem is u have been buying fake batteries which litter our market. I mean hat do u expect from a N5,000 naira laptop battery? the new batteries lasting 1 hour is the best u can get or order a genuine battery. My advice, keep using it like that or sell it get another laptop. |

Check some softwares running at the background or reformat it...it might have been infected by a spyware The best bet, reformat it and get it back to factory setting Coach1: |

divineshare: Tokunbo laptops will not give better result in terms of battery life. It would be like going fro frying pan to fire as the tokunbo laptop would have been used for 8 yrs or more before sending here hence weak battery. And 95% of tokunbo laptops sold in Ikeja already have their original batteries removed and replaced with China while they sell the original battery separately. 2 Likes |

greenhulk: Instead of "China" please say "Substandard" because they are mostly made in China(it's Nigerian importers that goes for the lowest specification) Besides, more that 50% (actual)tokunbo laptops in computer village still have their original batteries intact. I didn't mention brand new because of our failed exchange rate and unnecessary high cost and even the terrible standard of the affordable new ones i.e. LENOVO (very fragile) THERE IS THIS COMMON (E6000 SERIES) TOKUMBO CORE I5 DELL THAT LAST UP TO 4HRS, IT GOES AROUND 75K (my most recommended) 1 Like |

either you have an app/software that is draining your batter or the battery is defective. However, i will advise either doing a reset or install a completely new OS and if the issue persist, get a new battery. However, note that you should not expect the battery life to be the same as the laptop gets older. The very best battery loss about 20% of the charge capacity after a year and if you are using that battery with Naija light or Gen, the life circle will be even less. 1 Like |

bro. nothing is wrong with your laptop. mine is dell core i3 - av replaced three different batteries under 1 month and non lasts more than 1hr 30 minutes! and whn u return it back those guys will refuse to take it back claiming that you have already used it - and the people they bought it from cant accept it back from them. the one am stuck with now last only 30 minutes and i just bought it like 1 month ago. i dont mind paying 12k or 15k for a good dell battery that will last me 6hours like the original one that came with the system. chinese hav killed us in dis country - and the so called standard organization will just sit their while they turn us to a dump ground for fake and substandard products! 2 Likes |

Fake battery. You need to insist on the original.i had same issue with chargers some years back. Imitation latitude chargers sold for 5k and were gone in a week. Original was 11k and is still going. Fake Batteries are a big issue. Not just performance,but the risk of thermal runaway. 1 Like |

Coach1:Make sure the battery never gets empty, else, the MWh of the battery will keep reducing. When I initially bought my new battery, I was monitoring it with a battery bar app and there was no battery wear for about a week. The day I used the battery up and charged it again, the battery wear was at 3.5%. Subsequently, it climbed up to 6.8 and 15.4% the next two times I used it up and ever since then, I've never used it up again and it has remained at that 15.4 percent wear. 2 Likes |

divineshare: I know majority of electronics especially accesories are made in China. China will make anything depending on the specs u give them. The use of China in my context means substandard which is what is filled in our market in terms of accesories . Genuine accesories are expensive and as a businessman when u stock them it might take a long time to sell even 1 when the other businessman that ships cheaper substandard ones would have sold 10. 2 Likes |

it may be dust that block the fan area, which cause overheating and make the fan to run at a very high rate and as such drain the battery fast. try blow out the dust and see d different. |
