Thank a lot for the detailed review. I noticed something interesting about the two batteries (according to ThinkVantage Power Manager).
(1) First battery battery (23.58 Wh) is produced by SMP and has Li-Polymer chemistry, whereas the 2nd one (26.33 Wh) is from Sanyo and has Li-Ion chemistry. Is there any specific performance related reason for that?
(2) Upon load, the first battery drains first. Once it reaches the lower threshold (I don't remember the exact %) then the 2nd one starts providing power to the system automatically. When I plug in the power cord, the 2nd battery recharges first.
I'm no battery expert. So, bear with me please: will it be better if we can use two batteries somewhat simultaneously? Assuming it is a good practise, is it possible, for e.g., to use both batteries in smaller % portions - say 10% from Bat 1 and then 10% Bat 2 and then switching back to Bat 1 for another 10% and so on?
Bests,
Ash
