Hi all,

 

I need some help. I purchased this laptop 10 months back, but lately, i have been experiencing battery drain while laptop is turned off. (with Keyboard atatched). In one night, i saw 15% drain . 

 

I have updated by laptop with most upto date drives and BIOS version 01.27 Rev.A. 

 

I still have warrently left, not sure what should I do ? Should I take it to service center or it is a software issue ?

 

Hopeing to find a solution. Thank you, 

 

Cheers,

Nik

The battery is perhaps in need of calibration.

 

Batteries do age -- as they get older, they don't behave as they did when they were new.  

 

My suggestions.. at the least:

 

  • Check / Test for calibration.
  • Check / Read the document about Warranties for Business Notebooks (I believe this may apply in spite of the fact that your system is a tablet - I could be wrong.)
  • Contact HP and ask for help -- warranty coverage is good for business notebooks and you will likely get the information / help you need.

The solution includes a link to an article that explains Smart Battery Technology:

Battery having trouble?

The battery might be OK and just need calibration (balance / set).

 

The steps to check / calibrate / replace the battery are included in this document:
