    Its weird My Asus G1A battery was fully charged at 100% already last night and the battery indicator was off, but after replugging my AC today the battery is at 99% and the battery indicator is on. Its weird its like my battery is losing power even when it is not in use or is it just overcharging.

    Seems to be a normal thing with certain notebooks, half the notebooks I've owned did the same thing. Back then I raised an eye brow, now it doesn't phase me and I'm in the perfect place to ask why and it just hasn't accrued to ask why because I'm so use to it by now. Same with my current C90S, so why does it do that?

    Batteries lose charge even when they're not in use. Every type of battery I know of does this.
