Hello all, 

I purchased this laptop just a few days ago and have noticed that with moderate use, I am only getting 4 hours of battery life. I specifically chose this model as it states 15 hours (so I knew I could at least get 6 - 8 realistically) but that just is not the case!

I am a uni student but have been too busy to transfer all my files across yet, so I genuinely only have Spotify and office downloaded. I have only used it so far for light web browsing, so why is the battery draining so much? 

The battery is on 'battery saver' mode with the brightness half way.

It passed the HP battery diagnostic test but I cant understand how it drains so quickly. 

Please help! Thank you!
