Guys in the "easy settings option" there's an option called "Battery Life Extender" its description says "sets the Maximum Battery charge Level to 80 % to extend battery Lifetime" any thoughts on this?? So can I switch this On, and Game with AC power while the battery is still in the lap??
This is actually an advance technique of li-ion battery charging, charging up to 80% rapidly, extends battery life and it is set to most good charger of battery especially on high range devices, no connection with gaming by any mode. In brief, please switch it on, may reduce backup time but ensures long battery life.

Yep. I talked to 3 dealers. 1 told me @ 58k the second one at 60k and third one didnt have it.
Where are you now? and when are you planning to buy?
and which one?
and I've sent you an invite on gmail.

Guys please stop gaming on battery, its better to play on AC supply, if you care about good life of your precious laptop.

I actually want some clarification on using laptops on battery or ac. What's better? to use on ac or battery? Using the ac supply even when the battery is fully charged is harmful for the battery? Can we use the laptop continuously for 7-8 hrs on ac ?

Um.. So do you suggest taking out the battery while gaming on AC power?
Also if I game on AC power for long time, the battery becomes 100% and still keeps on charging. So is it recommended to keep on AC power when battery is 100%?

Hey guys, I haven't been following the thread recently, so can any one please tell me what is the power adapter that comes with the i7 version, 90 Watt or 120 Watt?
And Shaggy, can you give details of your purchase as I also plan to but from Eastern Logica, Chandni Chowk. I would like to know the price for which you got it and if any accessories were provided for free (bag, pendrive, headphones, etc.)...

Guys its available at flipkart for Rs 52778/- overpriced as usual.........flipkart's loosing its charm these days:|

Thats not over-priced. Actually whatever price flipkart quotes, be it offers or cashback, it deals with the MRP printed on the box/case of the items. But in big cities and big dealers, we dont care about the MRP, but there are places where the sellers stick to the MRP without any bargains. And so for those people, flipkart offers are a worth shot.

What you mean by rapid charging upto 80% ? Like continuous charging or something like that ?

No, hell no!! Don't take out battery your laptop can be damage by fluctuations.
generally use laptop in battery completely until computer hibernate for general work.
Plug charger till full charging then unplug it. And use power supply while gaming.

Yep. I talked to 3 dealers. 1 told me @ 58k the second one at 60k and third one didnt have it.
Where are you now? and when are you planning to buy?

Follow above quote! And use laptop bindaas!! I use continuously for weeks without turning off even at night. Do you switch off mobile when you are not using? same use laptop like mobile phone, charge only when warning comes up or hibernate.

Please guys don't ask again and again, read older posts I cleared about this.

Dude YOU don't own the laptop, that's why I was confirming from the owner itself...

And anyway you were wrong...Daksh just said he got a 90W psu with his i7 config "It's 90w only . Specified on the laptop box ."

Doing it extends charge cycle, thus recommended.

No, dude I owned a core-i7 laptop and generally all 45W core-i7 comes with 120W power adapters.
if it comes with 90W what is the problem?
