Hi!
I've just purchased a new laptop and per the gentoo guide was checking out the laptop specs,
Code: |
genjix@amir:~$ cat /proc/acpi/battery/CMB0/info
...
last full capacity: 4963 mAh
|
LG's website lists the battery's capacity as being 5200 mAh- is this accurate enough for me to believe I've been sold a dud battery and claim a new one?
Thanks! |

Since it's within 5% of the stated capacity I highly doubt you'd have any joy with that. You could try though. |
