If your laptop battery's life has gotten shorter over time, there is a way to recalibrate it. This method involves first turning off your screensaver and other power management settings that might put your laptop in sleep mode. Fully charge your laptop, then unplug it and allow it to drain the battery naturally until your laptop shuts down.
Once the battery is fully drained, you can charge it back up again and restore your screensaver and power management settings.
...if this doesn't work, it may be time for a new battery.
