Hello all!
Quick question on battery history. I'm running windows 8.1 on a Toshiba Z830. I used the battery history tool in windows 8 and it gives a history of the "full charge capacity" of my battery. It's rated for 46,472 mWh but it's only chargeable to 33,430 mWh. That's due to battery age and usage. I get that. But the history shows 2 significant drops in max charge with no change in between.
i.e. January through March it was constant at ~40,000 mWh. Then suddenly it drops to ~37,000, where it stays constant for several months. It then jumps again to the final ~33,000 mWh.
I would expect battery decline to be gradual rather than "punctuated". Any ideas of the cause?
Thanks in advance!
