The Dell inspiron 1545 laptop Battery Life is SO short! It starts at fully charged, but within a few minutes the battery life is reduced dramatically (i.e. goes from 2hrs 10mins to 1hr 53 then 1hr 47 within a couple of minutes). We have to keep the mains cable in most of the time which defeats the object somewhat. In the short time it has taken me to write this – the battery life has reduced to 1hr 30m!!!
I have just bought a dell inspiron 1545 for my son a couple of months ago . the inspiron 1545 battery life is only 2 hours though.
that actually sounds about average, what were you expecting ? – you probably can find long life batteries either from Dell or an OEM but it is likely to be quite expensive.
whert to buy the cheap one ?

We’ve just bought a 1545 and although the spec stated that we could expect 2 hours battery life, we’re lucky to get one ! Some evenings, we can charge the laptop twice which, is not what we were expecting.
Do you comfortably get two hours as we get nowhere near ?
Is there any way I can upgrade this and if so where do I purchase one from ?
Thanks very much
