    So on the vizio site,
    the warranty on my laptop states that if my battery is defective and the battery falls below 50% of the max capacity, they will replace the battery.

    Does that mean that if i use my laptop enough, and get it to a low capacity number, they will replace it,

    I barely use it and its already at 15 percent battery wear.

    You probably paid like 600 for your laptop and the battery will degrade like it will on almost any other laptop. So really who cares in three years if you are still using this you really should upgrade. The battery life on these already suck and these are cheap computers that probably even in a year won't be worth 300 dollars.

    Just sell it take that money and by a newer laptop, it makes no sense these days to even hold on to a computer more than a year your just losing alot of money. Sell every year at the right time and you won't even have to spend that much.
