I have a VPCZ1390X bought in Dec 2010, from sonystyle.com
The standard battery is reporting a designed capacity value of
59500 mWh
I am currently down to 57120 mWh though
a wear level of 4% so far.
that's roughly 6 months of daily unplugging. this battery is way better than
the one that came in my old HP DV6000.
It actually didn't start to show wear levels until after 3 months.
I used to keep it fully charged at 100% for maybe 1 month before I learnt about the 80% charge function feature through vaio batterycare.

No problems here. Got mine for almost a year now and no wear on my standard battery. And i don't use battery care, and it's always plugged in at home and on battery ''on the road''.

Achusaysblessyou eecs geek ftw :D
11 percent wear, bought it almost 13 months ago. (I had mines on 100% for... pretty much 10 months in, then i recently switched to 80% and being a college student, my battery goes through a TON of charge-discharge cycles)
-
My present Z116GG/B bought over 12m, and now the original 6-cell-battery wear is 20% of 59500 mWh. Alright.
-
that's the nice thing about premium sony-made cells - they'll last a bit longer then your standard cells you find in a dell or HP
-
How do I find the battery's reported value? When I got to Vaio Control Center it just tells me that my battery is in excellent condition.

I downloaded HWMonitor but I don't see anything that mentions the battery.

Mine is 1.1.7 and I have "Sony Corporation VAIO, Intel Core i7 640M, Micron PC..., Micron PC..." that's it. Wonder why mine doesn't show the battery.

Oh sorry I actually have 1.17. The latest one from their website.

Thanks for the 1.16 link. After having this machine for 7 months, my battery is still 100% on all fronts. (Although I never used it very hard and I don't discharge too often, but it's still nice to see)
-
Mine is 6% wear after almost a year. Discharged maybe 2 times a week, plugged in constantly otherwise. Not bad at all.
-
Does anyone know what consumes more the BT or the touchpad?
I usually keep bought but why keeping the touchpad if i have a BT mouse?
-
Sorry about forgetting to mention what program I used, but like others above said you could use any of those.
I used AIDA 64 Extreme.
Thanks for the replies. so my battery is right on track =)
What is the designed capacity for the VAIO Z standard battery?
