I finished recalibrating the battery just past midnight on Tuesday. Since then, I have put 2.2 hours of reading in and have done extensive notebook work where I had my LC propped up with an open notebook for reference while I wrote a book on my computer. Its energy setting during that session was changed to 15 minutes before sleeping. My backlight is generally at 30%, though I had it at 100% during my writing session.
I am currently at 59% power.
All of that would have killed my older iPad’s battery and forced a recharge. I’m pleased with how the LC’s battery is taking my abuse. I definitely recommend recalibrating your battery. If your battery results are worse than the results folks have shared with you here, you might have a bad battery.
