    Hi,
    I am using the above software and set the charge level to 80%. I almost never use the laptop on battery in fact my old laptop had 7 min of battery life and that was fine for me I didn't change for this reason. I would like to set the charge level to 40% this is the recommended level for maximum battery life and would still give about 1 hr of use. Is there any way to manually change the setting to 40% or less than 80% possibly in the bios. I beleive Sony Vaio can set to 100, 75 or 50% but doubt the software would work on a samsung,

    Cheers,
    G
