    Hi, I have had my Razer Blade 15 Advanced (Early 2019) with RTX-2070MQ since late April 2019... My battery life has been absolutely dreadful over the last few months.. I generally am only getting an hour to an hour and half of battery life (balanced mode), a hour 45 mins on a good day... Is this poor battery life expected? I'd expect at an absolute minimum, 2-2.5 hours battery life but this is appalling.

    All BIOS, OS and device software/firmware is up to date and everything is running on balanced mode and 70% screen brightness. I have even undervolted the CPU so I have no idea why I'm still getting such crappy battery life. This is even after a complete factory reset and fresh install of Windows 10.
    I grabbed these battery stats from Powershell:
    • DESIGN CAPACITY 80,219 mWh
    • FULL CHARGE CAPACITY 71,656 mWh
    Going by the above it looks like my battery capacity has gone to absolute crap and I've only just used this laptop for only 1.5 years!

    This is the latest breakdown of my battery usage this morning:
    • 10:30:01 - Battery @ 100% (71,656 mWh)
    • 12:15:54 - Battery @ 10% (7,515 mWh) --- this is when I generated the report
    Anyone else with the same laptop and have any issues with battery life?
