It lasts ages on my laptop, something like 4 hours. Then I have the battery power afterwards.
Obviously less when rendering but it would complete the video comfortably.

That's the only thing I can't complain about because I spent a decent amount of money building a workstation, renders things very quickly. My problem is uploading videos because I live out in the damn forest. Half tempted to put them to flashdrives, drive to a friends house and upload them at his place since they have awesome net.

All in the name of "progress" and "safety". I call it revenue.

They've been calling around trying to get people to install this remote control thing on the A/C unit so they can turn it off during the day as needed. Yeah,right.
