Battery Rejuvenation...



Hi!

I know I've seen this post before but since I can't find my reference, I 
thought I would ask again.

I have a Thinkpad 755CX (SVGA, MWave) that has a LiIon battery.  I don't know 
whether this is coincidence but since I've upgraded my machine to Win95, I 
notice that my suspend mode only last for 6-8 hours at best.  Previously with 
Win 3.1 I could suspend the machine overnight without any problems and still 
have time to work before I would have to plug in the adapter.

First off, I thought LiIon batteries didn't have this memory problem and that 
they could last much longer than NiM batteries.  Secondly, is there a way of 
rejuvenating the battery?  Believe it or not, I use the IBM Fuel utility to 
discharge and recharge my battery on a regular basis, in the hopes that this 
exact problem wouldn't occur.

Thanks in advance!
