    I've heard battery life isnt great on the y510p (Non SLI), can anyone confirm how long their battery lasts? And is there any way to purchase a bigger battery, or a 2nd battery?

    Thanks.

    Well, Lenovo decided to change the battery of the y510p from a 72wh (previously on the 500) to a 62wh. In theory, it's possible to purchase the 72wh one and use that instead. I've considered doing if for my y410p as it only has a 48wh battery, but I'm not sure how much battery life I'll need for college yet.
