Hp Pavilion Laptop Battery Life Hours

I bought this laptop to replace my 7 year old HP Pavilion laptop. I was happy with the quality of the computer, as well as the Intel processor. It is a beautiful computer at a reasonable price.

I got this for an old hp pavilion 3000 series laptop and it works perfectly to expand the amount of ports you need, the transfer speeds aren't bad either, even with a more modern usb drive.

Replaced the original mechanical 1TB hard drive in our HP Pavilion laptop using the Samsung Migration software. Made an image copy of the old drive, removed the old drive and rebooted into all the content that was there before! Superfast boot, applications open in an instant. The old computer had a slot for the optane cache memory and this fit in the M2 slot with no problems. Like a new laptop for $100 bucks!

This is a follow up on my original review from 12/3/2022 (I do not see a way to update an existing review). All my findings in the first review are still valid and the laptop has proven itself a reliable workhorse. However I discovered one intermittent issue with the battery life. In most cases the 80% charged battery wold last at least 4-6 hours when watching videos or browsing web on the lowest brightness. Occasionally however it would drop to 2 hours or less (the back of the laptop would also become noticeably warm). I turned on battery saver, made sure to disable any programs and services, except the video player or the browser tab I was using, and the CPU utilization was around 1%. Yet the battery life was unusually short and I could find any reason for that. A reboot (sometimes more than once) would help in most cases but this did not seem right. After some research I found that Windows Fast Startup, enabled by default, may be causing this (no hard evidence though). Anyway, after disabling Fast Startup my battery life on the lowest settings improved to consistent 7-8 hours (again with the initial charge of 80%). If you are unhappy with your battery life search for How to Turn On or Off Fast Startup in the Control Panel. It is simple and I did not notice any adverse effects.

This little projector is perfect for projecting images (4:3 format) onto any surface. Image brightness depends on size of image and area lighting. I use this to project internet video from my HTC Tilt 2 phone, as well as photos taken during the day for family events. Battery life is great (2 hours) before having to plug in the device to USB. Running off the laptop I never have to worry about the battery. Continuous projection of my laptop for the whole day (just for fun). Unit comes with 2 batteries (for quick swap). Battery life is extended to 3 hours when using the low power setting, but the image is much dimmer (I always use the high power setting).

Love my new Pavilion 16 laptop. Everything and more than I expected!

Has good battery life for several hours of listening.

Very snappy little laptop and the battery life is excellent.

I used SSD disk for 15.6 Pavilion 15-cs3073cl Multi-Touch Laptop .

It is small, but with a big power!! Battery life is about 2.5 hours if you use it for 50% of power!
