    my m11x battery has deteriorated by 5k mW since I got in early july. Is this the normal rate?

    also, how do I order another battery for the m11x? I can't find one anywhere, and I want another one.

    I've also noticed the hinges on mine starting to get a little less sturdy. not a good sign.

    I've had mine since mid June. In 5 months mine's gone from 67,800mWh to 63,060mWh. That's pretty typical. In general you do not want to order a spare battery until you need a new one.
