T460s Battery Life (post your experience?)

Hi All,

I've had my T460s for about 5 months and honestly love it. The one thing that's not great is the battery life. I just this morning started playing around with the battery report from the powercfg command (powercfg /batteryreport from the command line in Windows 8 or newer I believe) and at least according to it, I'm getting much less battery life than I should. It's showing my full charge capacity at 40,478 mWh and the design capacity at 49,840 mWh. It looks like I'm averaging right under 4 hours of battery life most days, which the powercfg command estimates would be closer to 5 hours if my full charge capacity matched the design capacity.

What are you all seeing? I'm not even sure if this is unusual to be honest. I do remember my Surface Pro 3 typically reported full charge capacity very close to its design capacity, but that's my only other experience with the tool.

Edit: Could those of you running Windows run the "powercfg /batteryreport" and see what your recent Full Charge capacity looks like? Also, I should have mentioned I'm the Core i5 6300U with the 2560x1440 display.

Edit2: I ran the battery report on the other T460s we have, which is the same configuration as mine but with the 1080p screen. Its full charge capacity is 46,940 mWh. It's also 3 months newer than mine. So it will be interesting to see if it degrades quickly over the coming months. I hope these don't have defective batteries!
