Battery Life?
I have purchased a Sony VGN AR11m but when it comes to battery life i have a issue. Its only been on 51 minutes after a full charge and only have 26% left. Also when you run a laptop on a charger does it run up a lot of electricity, more than a pc. Is it cost efficent to just keep a laptop on a power supply when using it. Please Help
Now i have changed the power management setting from Minimal Power Management to Vaio Ultimate Batterey Setting, did that cause some of the problem. Now the only other thing working in the background is norton, should this make a difference

I believe those batteries were recalled. Check with the manufacturer.
I have a Dell notebook and they sent me a replacement battery. The batteries overheat and can cause fires.

Check to see if the battery you have is on the recall list. I'd also remove the battery and run the laptop with the AC adaptor in the mean time, just in case.

Sony just had a major re-call on batteries, check out with the Sony dealer and see if your battery is on the list.
