Hi all I've had my chromebook for roughly three years without any major issues. The battery was at about 30% life six months ago but now isn't even detectable according to crosh.
Are there any reliable third-party or official recommended replacements? I see a bunch on Amazon alone but I'm not sure about one brand from the next.
Thanks!
I'm curious as to whether you thought 30% battery life after less than 3 yrs of use is the norm? What made you consider battery issues?
I am using the ASUS C302CA and I've been more than satisfied for the last couple of years up until a few months ago.
I have issues with random shut downs. I have replaced the charger and that seemed to help for a while. Now I sometimes I get a full 100% charge
and other days it does not complete the charge and starts draining while still plugged in. I just checked the battery and this is what I get.
crosh> battery_test
No test length specified. Defaulting to 300 seconds.
Battery is discharging (73.44% left)
Battery health: 83.99%
Please wait...
I've been avoiding a Power Wash. I'd just like to know what kind of problem this random shut down and battery draining issues are really all about?
I'll buy a new battery if need be. Will you share your insights?
Thank You.
