how much does this battery last under average use? What´s in your case?

I will say the battery works as well if not better than my original Samsung battery that came with my phone and charges quickly. I was only going to use the TrendON battery as a spare but i actually use it often interchanging all the batteries and i read that just helps keep the batteries longer. The length the battery keeps a charge is the same.

I got this on Aug 2013, and now it is only 6 monthes or so, and I use it not daily, but once--weekly, so the battery is still good, not 30mins, over 1 hr no problem. never measure it.

Battery life is pretty good... A whole day if your actually using it.. I've left it sitting and it's lasted around 3 weeks without usage on one charge.

I have yet to replace mine. And I've had teh unit for a number of years now. I suppose the battery life will depend how heavily it is used. Mine is moderately used.

I also agree with Andrew. I bought this battery and simply installed it and it has worked fine ever since (more than 3 months now). I went from about 6 hours per day of life to now about 12 under normal use.

I have no issues with this battery. I run my laptop for hours at a time typically, so I keep it plugged in. If you were to run as little as possible, I'd say it would probably last an hour or two.

I really think the battery is ok, i have bought two of this laptop and if you are using it continuosly the battery life is approx 10hrs.

Don´t know how long you´ve been using it for. If it is 1-2 yrs max with a minor-moderate usage I suggest you contact the manufacturer. I did it once at the beginning and they provided a great/quick service. If you´ve used it for several years then you have to understand that all batteries have a life. Maybe you´ve drained it a few times and it´s over now.

As a "moderate" user, I charge mine about once a week. It lasts impressively long.

I've had this battery for slightly under 2 months and am quite satisfied with it so far. It holds a charge for 3-4 hours. It's duration depends a lot of course on your laptop's power settings, like screen brightness.

I have run it for about 6 hrs before on a fully charged battery. Sometimes 7 depending on how often it is used. I keep a spare fully charged battery on hand just in case.

I'd guessitmate about 6 months. It's not an issue, in general, I don't feel like I am putting in a new battery often.

An swer here..when i purchased the batterys i was looking for a good long lasting battery an not a legal battle over technical stuff. Also in your question you wrote with current tech only about 3600mah. Notice the word about! You may be correct but you may not have found all the facts yet either. But beside all the technical an nit picking things it is a good battery an has served its purpose for me so far.

I get less than 2 hours of use on a full charge (mainly using for internet browsing, email, and playing mp3). The battery also drains when it's not on. I have the 16 GB linux version with advanced desktop enabled. This seems to be common. I think most manufacturers exaggerate battery life a lot, if it's not a flat-out lie. So 2 hours or less of use unplugged with this device is probably the norm, if the manufacturer is saying 3 to 4 hours. My experience with most rechargeable mobile devices is that normal real world use will not get anywhere near what manufacturers state for battery life.

That is difficult to say. I have an use my original battery (Aug 2007) - which still holds a two hour charge under heavy video usage. I needed another for my extended travels and quick swap out in foreign countries or areas without reliable consistent power sources.

Hi Grant! I don't have quantitative data, unfortunately, and I could find no numbers on the Web. We've found the life of these batteries (between charges) to be acceptable for our uses. We're not pros, so we don't go out for extended time periods and burn the batteries all the way down. We've not been caught short or in need of a charge by these items, under our use conditions. Sorry I don't have better info; all we can say is we've used them for a short while and noticed no operational difference from OEM units in our hands.
