Rechargeable batteries do not last forever.

They only accept about 1,000 charge cycles before becoming a brick.
so if you charged it everyday, that would be less than 3 years.

In addition, as the battery ages, it's ability to fully charge is lessened. That is why it is important to fully discharge the battery before connecting it up again. Some MFRs have software installed to "calibrate" the battery which you should run periodically which will lengthen the life of your battery.

My battery on my JVC Mobile Mini Note PC/MP-XV841 has not been charging when I plug into an electrical outlet.

How long have you had the battery?
The average life of a battery if charged everytime the laptop is used can be as low as 12 months.
Try a replacement battery if this one is exhausted.

Sir am using acer 4736 model. past 2 weeks it has some problem wit battery life..though i charge it 100% backup is very less nd also in the battery icon it says 'consider replacing ur battery'.could u plz...

Maybe the life of the battery is almost exhausted. If the battery is charged everytime the laptop is used it will gradually decay in life and energy storage. They are best emptied and then recharged at least once a month. That will help to keep the life of the battery extended as long as possible.

Acer Aspire One PC Notebook- Mini 1GB, WXP

Hi,

This sounds like the laptop is faulty if within minutes the laptop is totally drained of power from a so-called full charge.
Because the laptop is new then I recommend that you send or take the laptop back for repair or replacement as it's still covered by the manufacturers warranty.




Regards.
