Battery percentage drops suddenly

Post by sk8shape »

Good morning everybody, as the title says I have some battery calibration problems. In particular the battery percentage drops from 20%-ish to 7% pretty much every time I let it go so low. Is there any way I can recalibrate it? I already tried to do some full discharge, full charge cycles, but that didn't help.

Hello friend, you did not explain here your Laptop model or company name and how much old your battery? Sometimes many old batteries also create the problem like you are facing

In addition to what @addysmith97 wrote, please post the output of this terminal command:
