Hey guys, I am a new Tuff Book owner and have a question about the battery.

My battery will run completely down in about two weeks with the computer

shut completely off (charger not connected) but if I take it out of the computer it stays charged indefinitely

Is this normal or do I have a problem ?

Thanks Jim

That's sounds about right. When I store my Toughbooks I just open the battery door and pull the battery out a little. Problem solved.

That's normal, even the non-toughbook pc's do that.
