Latitude e6420 Battery
Hey!
I've been using my E6420 since a couple of years, but I recently bought a new battery (6-cell 60Wh) original from dell. I notice that the battery only lasts for about 1-2 hours only browsing with power-saving profile and also about 15% brightness.
-I installed the new 1909 Win10 update but it didn't help much.
-I'm using Microsoft Edge (which is consuming 33% and 28% in background)
-I've tried disabling Nvidia drivers (thus only running with integrated video card)
-Tried disabling Intel turbo-boost from BIOS, didn't help (at least not a noticeable change)
-BIOS tests says my battery has a health of 85%
-Tried disabling all my start-up programs (which were not many) that I don't need.
-Updated every single driver, SupportAssist says there is no driver available, also did its tests and passed them all.
-BIOS is the latest, A26 I think.
I hope you can help me find a solution to this!
