    Hi Guys,

    I have a quick question regarding the battery life on members Sony Vaio SB's. I have the regular battery that the lappy comes with no sheet battery. But it seems i'm only getting about 2 - 2 hours and 30 minutes of battery life when it is fully charged with the occasional streaming and web surfing.

    Just wondering if this is normal or do I have a defective battery?

    Thanks for all your guys help!
