Hello,
Just got a new laptop battery for my Lenovo that I installed Linux Mint on. The battery doesn’t seem to charge properly. It tend to tell me that there are like 5 minutes left to charge when it should take much longer. For example I had it charging all night and unplugged it and after about 5 min of use, it said warning my battery was extremely low. Here are details from the battery.
Notice the large disparity between “energy full” and “energy full design”. I’m no computer person but would guess these should be similar.
Any ideas on what could be wrong?
