Thanks.

How long a battery should last?

And how long daily without charging?

I’m sorry but i have never had a laptop in my life.

I’ll appreciate your help.

How did you determine you had to replace the battery. My green charging light won’t turn on and I’ve replaced the charger, but still nothing. Could this be due to a bad battery?
