Have no idea of the normal autonomy of those beasts and would like to know if mine is about the same.

Mine (well, wife's) shows about 2 hours * I think* but will check better.

I get around 3.5 to 4 hours with my X23's battery (assuming that is what you mean by "autonomy.")

Thank you I will check how does my wife's X23 but I suspect it is nowhere near 4 hours.

New (i.e. unused) batteries last the longest, and they goes downhill from the moment you start using them.

I have gotten up to 3 hours of operation on an X23, even with batteries made in 2002 or 2003. These batteries however came with the lightly-used off-lease X23's and had cycle counts of 50 or less, so they were relatively rarely discharged below 50%.

With a 4400 battery off Ebay, recently made in China, I was able to get up to 4 hours with SpeedStep enabled and the LCD dimmed a couple of steps. Interestingly, this battery showed a design capacity above 5,000 although as it arrived the fully-charged recent capacity was closer to the stated 4,400. I keep wondering about that, whether these were packs originally designed for some 5,000+ usage that sat on the shelf for a year and got relabelled. Hmmmm..

I doubt you can get beyond 4 hours usage with standard battery.
