Notebook batteries tend to wear out faster than other laptop components, typically exhibiting performance degeneration with just two or three years of use. Once the performance gets bad enough, you\u2019ll need to replace the original battery. It\u2019s fairly easy to test your laptop computer battery\u2019s charge and health, and by doing so you can help avoid unwanted surprises.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"http:\/\/www.aussiebatt.com\/toshiba\/satellite-pro-a120-batteries.html\">Toshiba\u00a0satellite pro a120 laptop battery life<\/a> put to test<\/h2>\n<p>The laptop battery life tests are pretty simple to get done by using a single full battery charg. We\u2019ll compare the performance of the battery according to Toshiba\u2019s advertised 3.8 hours of <a title=\"Easy ways to prolong your Toshiba satellite a300 battery life\" href=\"http:\/\/www.aussiebatt.com\/blog\/easy-ways-to-prolong-your-toshiba-satellite-a300-battery-life\/\">battery power life<\/a>. The question is, can the Toshiba\u00a0satellite pro a120 laptop keep up with the advertised run-time.<\/p>\n<p>According to the battery life (on Power Saver) when I started a couple of minutes ago, the Toshiba satellite pro a120 notebook had a 90% battery life which translates to 2 hours and 50 minutes lifespan. I must say that I am impressed with its battery as it is a product that is only 15.9mm thin and weighs 1.17kg!<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.aussiebatt.com\/toshiba\/portege-m500-batteries.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-1081\" title=\"Toshiba portege m500 long life battery\" alt=\"toshiba-portege-m500-laptop-battery\" src=\"http:\/\/www.aussiebatt.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/toshiba-portege-m500-laptop-battery.jpg\" width=\"520\" height=\"520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aussiebatt.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/toshiba-portege-m500-laptop-battery.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.aussiebatt.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/toshiba-portege-m500-laptop-battery-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.aussiebatt.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/toshiba-portege-m500-laptop-battery-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 520px) 100vw, 520px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nLaptop Battery life before work officially started:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>3 hours, 50 minutes<\/li>\n<li>90% Remaining<\/li>\n<li>Time: 11:45am<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Laptop Battery life during my Youtube-time:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2 hours, 38 minutes<\/li>\n<li>57% Remaining<\/li>\n<li>Time: 2:38pm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Test results until the laptop battery power went off:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Blog posts written and completed:\u00a0 3<\/li>\n<li>Blog post still in draft mode (Partially done, 10%-50%):\u00a0 2<\/li>\n<li>Number of comment left on blogs: 5<\/li>\n<li>Cups of coffee drank: 2 cups<\/li>\n<li>Time: 6:54pm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The long battery life of the Toshiba\u00a0satellite pro a120 laptop can also be\u00a0attributed\u00a0by the core processor by Intel, which has a high performance and energy efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>Essentially this line of processor that Intel came out with helps to reduce the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aussiebatt.com\/toshiba-laptop-battery.html\">Toshiba battery power<\/a> comsuption but still delivers in performance.<\/p>\n<p>The laptop battery run-time varies for different people and different uses.
