X1 Generations – ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 5

Battery Run-time

This is an admittedly quick-and-dirty look at battery run-time.  Not “life”.  Battery life is life-and-death – can it be charged or not.  Run-time is how long it will power the laptop once it has been charged.  </soapbox>

In the below tests I let things run long enough for the “gas gauge” to settle – usually after the charge level had dropped by one or two percentage points.  The results are remarkable, but I have not actually kept the laptop in use long enough to fully discharge the battery.  YMMV.
