M30-154: battery works only 10 min

Please help me: I bought my satellite m30 154 21 months ago and recently the battery seems to be crazy: capacity has really reduced, because (from 0 to 100%) charge time is 30 min long, and when he finishes, I put off the AC adapter then the battery goes from 100% to 0% in 10 minutes! What is the problem? is this normal in less than 2 years he's already dead? I already tried to unload and reload several times completely, but the result is the same... do you think that formatting and reinstalling something will change? or just the battery died and I need to buy a new one? Thanks marco

Hi Marco,.

Battery life is notoriously unpredictable and it is very possible that some of the cells of the battery have deteriated to the point where they will hold is no longer a burden.

If you have tried to recondition the battery to full charge, discharge and then recharge it is likely that the battery does not and must be replaced.

The M30 does not seem to be prone to problems of power with the battery adapter and it works not properly (see other posts in this forum), but I don't think it's your problem. Your software of power probably isn't at issue here.

Kind regards

  • mini presentation remote mac works only sporadically

    Hi all

    I have a Logitech R400 that needs to be able to control the PowerPoint on a Mac mini.

    Yesterday it worked fine.

    Today, he works only sporadically, and I have not changed a thing. It's still the same presentation.

    Sometimes, you can change the slide and sometimes you can't (even when standing very close to the Mac mini).

    This Mac mini specifications are quite anemic (1.4 GHz and 4 GB of memory), but I closed all applications except PowerPoint and have nearly 2 GB of free memory.

    Any thoughts?

    Any help would be most appreciated!

    Mike

    Based on

    http://www.Logitech.com/en-us/product/Wireless-Presenter-R400

    the remote uses a USB wifi dongle and operates on the 2.4 GHz band.

    This band is susceptible to interference and I think that is causing your problem.

    Peripheral USB 3 is a source of interference.

    Try to use the dongle at the end of an extension USB cable

  • Early MacBook Pro - battery (old and new) lasts only 45 min

    Early macbook pro 13 "

    -Autonomy had become terrible, about 30 mins web browsing, the warning came on she was less than 80%, or whatever the threshold is battery.  To obtain the life expectancy of 6 to 8 hours.  I have owned since new, no spills or drops.  Its duty cycle is 8 hours on a charger, then 3-4 hours on battery every day of the week and another 2-3 hours on battery power the weekend followed by a full charge.

    -New battery installed 2 months ago was better than the nominal capacity, coconut reports 6109 mah capacity

    -New battery lasts about 45 min to 0% before web browsing and stops without warning or sleep.

    -Reset each possible controller, SMC, PRAM, etc.  No change.

    -Ran, he died 3 or 4 times and then fully charged hoping that it would be to calibrate itself, no chance.

    -Inspect the process etc. but the CPU usage is very low, only thing of note is because I'm on 10.6.8 the standard memory leak safari is still there, so must be restarted regularly, javascript is disabled.  Firefox takes about the same amount of time browsing and has a blocker javscript.  I have not installed flash.

    -Battery coco brings about 10 watts of power use while the battery is drained.  A quick calculation shows 5000 + mah used in 35 minutes isn't 10 watts so obviously, coconut is not reporting correctly.

    -Refill after low drain lasts about the same as usual, about 2 hours if I use the machine, an hour or so if his asleep.  Lived a few Chargers because of pines stick and blend.

    -The only other issue I noticed is from time to time with an external monitor connected so that the navigation in safari with Javascript, if you press some ads, the two screens in the black for a second and the computer screen will resume blurred with colors and lines, while the external display is fine. An error is recorded on the console (don't remember what it is) and then the screen is scrambled feeding, recorded increases of the coconut and the machine gets hot.  Nothing is noted in the activity monitor.  Safari shut down, sleep and wake the machine clears the display problem.  By disabling javascript, this problem is not triggered.

    -My next step is to replace the charge Jack / ongoing in the Council, but I cannot find examples of this help other people.  Its pretty cheap but.

    D ' other ideas?

  • Satellite Pro L20: Battery lasts only 30 minutes.

    This problem has persisted throughout the four months, I've owned and used this notebook: when the battery has been recharged and I try to work on battery power only, the battery reading usually indicates 82% min 27' and, as you would expect, runs right now.

    I've seen similar problems reported on this forum, but none with such a capacity of battery runs.

    In case this isn't a bad battery, is it possible that I use a lot of battery power without realizing?

    Hello

    As far as I know that the Toshiba power saver is not installed on the Sat Pro L20.
    The power of Microsoft options windows is responsible for the State of battery power.
    However, have you tried to update the BIOS on this laptop? If this isn't the case, in order to check it out.
    Visit the Toshiba page and check that you have installed the version of BIOS with BIOS available on the site.

    But it is also possible that the battery has a malfunction because it s unusual that the laptop will run only 27 minutes on battery.

  • Battery down for 10 min on Tecra 9000

    My battery will lose its charge after 10 minutes, but if I close the lid of my laptop, it stays 4 hours is a problem with my battery or my laptop please help

    It is simply to explain.
    The display has most of the power of the battery and if you close the display would emerge and that he would not use the battery power.

    In your case, I think the battery is old to run much longer than 10 min

    I had a similar problem with my old battery now it s running only 2 min
    But in my case it's not really a problem because I use my laptop as a desktop and it s always plugged into mains

  • Pencil of Apple works with iPad Mini 4?

  • Satellite Pro L100 132: the battery is only 2000mA

    Hi all
    I bought the model L100-132. The battery is only 2000 mAh and lasts 1 hour. I turned off anything, the power set MAX_BATTERY saver, but it gives nothing. All the sites he says last for more than 2 hours, and some say it's almost 3: 00. OK, so if they have so long and then they gave me too little!

    I should not receive at least 4000 mAh?
    Maybe someone has this model with the same small battery?
    Please, answer if you can at [email protected]

    Thank you.

    Well, I think that the laptop will be delivered with a standard 2000mAh battery, but you can order a stronger battery with perspicuously much more performance.
    I visited and checked the site Web of Toshiba Options and accessories, and you may find additional batteries:

    Battery Pack (6 cells, 4300mAh) PA3399U-1BRS
    Battery (Li-ion, 4000mAh, 6 cells) PA3465U-1BRS
    Battery (Li-ion, 4000mAh 8-cell) PA3506U-1BRS
    Battery (Li-ion, 4300mAh, 8 cells) PA3457U-1BRS
    Battery high capacity Pack (Li-ion, 12 cells, 8600mAh) PA3400U-1BRS

    But in addition, you need to know the battery working time depends mainly on the use of the laptop.

  • Equium A110-233 stops using the WiFi and the fans work only 3 sec

    I bought an A110 - 233 20/09/06. It works very well for about 1 hour then it interrupts the communication via the wireless network connection status States he is always connected, sometimes but not always the configuration window indicates that the without wire is cut and I should turn it on at the bottom of the window (there is lit) processor Intel Pro.

    I brought the world PC waiting for a replacement but I had to sit for an hour trying to reproduce the error, we couldn't go wrong but I have discovered that it does only when running on the network.

    Cooling fan only works for 1-3 seconds at a time, is it possible to increase this number.

    Any help would be appreciated
    Bob

    Hello

    If you want to change the properties of cooling module you must do in the standby power settings.
    You should know that the energy saver uses different modes of consumption. The laptop is using another mode of energy if the AC adapter is plugged and another mode of power if the laptop works only with the battery.
    On the basis of energy saver menu, you will be able to change the method of cooling. This option controls the fan.

    It is not easy to solve the problem of WLAN communication. I mean that there is no general solution. Additional it is not easy to solve because the issue doesn't happen always, but sometimes only. Perhaps the intensity of the signal is sometimes lower and therefore, the configuration software WLan Intel reports that the wireless network is turned off.

    In addition, you should also check the Wlan card properties. You will find that the properties in Device Manager-> right click on the wireless network card.
    Here, you must select the Advanced tab.
    You should find a few interesting options such as energy saving (disable) or the strength of the signal (enable).

    In addition, you can try to update the WLan driver. Maybe a new version is available.

    By the way: you should also know that some 3rd party application could have a bad influence on WLan communication.

  • A 'Powered USB Port' does not work on Mac Mini

    I have an external POWERED USB multiport block. When I plug the Superdrive into a Port powered on the unit, which of course is connected to my Mac Mini (2012) the Superdrive not even she acts as if it is connected and will not accept a disc. All ports are USB 3.0. I'm so uncertain that the Superdrive will work on any USB port other than the one on the Mac itself. Any advice? I El Capitan installed, but it has worked that way before the upgrade.

  • Modules of working only once

    It has been some time now that I noticed my addons not working not not on Mozilla TO in Ubuntu. Addons are installed properly and, indeed, they appear when I use mozilla sync in other computers.

    Today I tried the suggested troubleshooting here https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/982460
    It works only once. I can install my addons again, but as soon as I close firefox and reopen the addons disappear from the top bar and the customization window. Even when I try to change preferences for Ghostery I get only blank a screen so addons are absolutely not working in Ubuntu

    Note that the OP is using the developer edition (39 Firefox) and not the regular version.

    Have you checked for problems caused by one or more of the extensions that may not be fully compatible with OF?

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problem.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile already used in the new profile, but be careful not to copy files corrupted to avoid transporting more problems.

    That is right. The requires iTunes 12.3.3 and in order to get it, you will need to update OS X to El Capitan. That's how Apple has created for better or worse, I'm sorry.
