IVE RECENTLY PURCHASE AN A317M.
MY BATTERY APPEARS TO LOSE CHARGE EVEN WHEN SWITCHED OFF.
IS THIS NORMAL?
OR IS SOMETHING WORNG?
When its put like that its quite a difference!
The thing is, there is no OFF button on the AC-adapter. And I down't know how much energy need that thing in standby. Mmmh, you could check it with a thing like this one.
I think, I buy one of these things.
Yeah it would be interesting to see just how much electricity is used when a VAIO goes on standby.
I would recommend a surge surpressor to go alongside the plug meter.
I have ordered it. In approx two days, I have it.:smileycool: (39,95¿:smileyrolling_eyes: )

If I have it, then I will show here the energy consumption of my PCG-FR315S.
here are two example pictures from the seller site.
Seb,
That's going to be some interesting findings....
Can't wait (well thats if I am not banned :smileyhappy:)
You? Banned?

Hmmmm
Maybe they think "Seb21 and JamesMold can easily replace him, watch the door on the way out Lo!"
If they think that, then they are more stupid and blind than I gave them credit for.:smileywink:
I will cancel the order.:smileysad: At the moment, I need the money for other things.:smileysad:
But I have safe this thread to my favourites. So, I will do this but not now.:smileysad:
I have also tagged this to my favourites list. Could be an interesting experiment.
