Laptop battery is weak? - CrypticX - Jun 12, 2015
Hi there
So my laptop's battery is becoming weak, I mean the battery discharges real fast. And I know that this happens when you let the laptop charging for too long, but it wasn't the case with me though. I always waited for the battery to get at 100% and then remove the charger, but I don't know how it all happened. It's an old laptop though, don't know if that would be the cause.
But anyways is there any way I could fix this without purchasing a new battery?
Thanks in advance 🤝

This happens to batteries over time.
Its time to get a new laptop or a new battery

This. Mine died after 8 years of use lol. Not too shabby for outdated hardware.

It is said that after 1000 charges your battery loses a certain % of it's ability to hold charge. I would replace it, I know I would replace my battery when the warranty is near it's ending.

Alright thanks for the answers. I won't invest into a new battery though, i'm better off buying a new computer 🤝
