@duwudi - It has indeed been “plugged in” for roughly the whole time. … It might be a bit shorter than that … It was in use from the month that the displays and keyboards reached Australia
It did raise a question in my mind of when it was first “built” … I hunted and could not easily find a first date because I have had it booting from an USB SSD since whatever version of the OS allowed that - and the last time it was “off” for any length of time was when I replaced the fan … I probably should have thought the battery life issue through …
Any way to recover it? Or should I just let it bleed out?
Thx
