how does the leds on the charger works when i recharge the sheet battery alone? i tried recharging it and after about 2 hours , the charger light turned off, then turned on again, doing this each 2-3 minutes. so i thought the battery was fully charged, i connected it to the laptop and discovered it wad 65%....so is my charger/battery broken or what?
thanks for your help

Well it should load up to 80%/100% nonstop. Did you try to charge the battery when plugged in to your laptop? If that works your battery is fine and your sheet battery charger is broken. If that also doesn't work then your sheet battery might be broken.

plugged it charges well, so it's the sheet battery charger. thanks for your help

my battery charger adapter works as it should. Led stays on until fully charged and when I mount the battery it is 100% charged. Check if the adapter sits all the way in on your battery.

i have to try again with the external charger,now i'm recharging it when plugged into the notebook.
BTW i have another question:i noticed that when the battery is plugged, the notebook first dicharges it, before draining power from the internal battery. well this is ok, but the sheet battery gets fully discharged before the switch takes place! is there a method to instruct the notebook not to discharge the sheet battery past a caution level, let's say 10% ?
thanks for your answers -
... the charging of the batteries is also quite stupid: First the internal battery is charged to 80%, then the external to 80%, then the internal again to 100% and then the external to 100%. Only way to stop that "double" charging is to charge them seperately. -

RACE!
Nah, I've killed my fair share of laptop batteries, enough to figure out what was killing the newer ones; which was why I was pleasantly suprised to find the batterycare option in newer Vaios(first found it while reimaging a spare E series laptop we had). I have my own ways of handling batteries, and Sony's just happens to help me
SA sheet battery recharging issue?
