Hmmm. A couple of the screw lengths look a bit suspect. At step 1, the six 90mm screws? That’s nearly four inches long!! And at step 6, three 50mm screws? I haven’t started this yet, but my guess is that the respective lengths should be 9mm and 5mm respectively. But apart from that, the article reads very well; just what I was looking for. Thanks!

how many hours will this battery last? I bought a new laptop Asus x455L and the fully charged battery only lasts 3 hours. I’ve already adjusted my screen brightness to 40% and turned off WIFI & Bluetooth
