Battery charging stop at 33% on my Asus laptop with windows 7

[Capponero]

Hello guys,

I have laptop Asus UL30A for more than 2 years with windows 7 home edition. Everything worked fine, but suddenly on change occurred:

The battery charging stops exactly at 33%. It is stated that "33% available (plugged in, charging)", but it never exceeds this value. Since it is that "nice" value (exactly 1/3) I am convinced, that it is not hardware or battery error, but something with the operating system and drivers.

(I know that in windows 8 is software, which allows to not charge a battery fully in order to extend its lifetime, but I don't have such a software in my windows 7).

Does anybody have an advice for me, how can I charge my laptop fully please???

Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi welcome to the forum
Do you know anyone that has the same laptop that you could try their battery. Sounds to me the battery is going bad. Two years on a battery is about the lifetime for it.

Normally the battery life of a laptop battery is 2 to 3 years... If you use your laptop other than home, it is time to buy a new battery... Or use your laptop using Ac power adapter..
