    Just wondering,

    On my LG LW60, I have the Battery Miser 2005 set to Always On the battery recharge to 100%. But recently it never seems to charge past 99%.

    Is this due to the battery losing it's charging "integrity"? And over time it will fully charge up to a lesser and lesser amount?

    I usually have my 6-cell battery in and the laptop plugged in at the mains.

    Thanks

    It's probably just a computation error. You might try running the battery down to nothing and letting it recharge from there. Cycling it like this a few times may help to reset that counter.

    Hmm..I'm guessing it is a computation error. Since it's gone back to 100% now without even using Brian's suggestion.

    Thanks all the same. ;)

    Just saw the new small form factor lg laptop. Mmmmm.

    That one and a compaq small form factor laptop, both had the nicest and smoothest hinge motion.
