battery Issue for 2210

Unfortunately, 18 months is not that uncommon to have your battery life
starting to go. of course it depends on usage, charging routine,
luck.....etc. probably time to look at a replacement battery.

Perhaps this contains some interesting information:

Although they claim a lithium-ion battery should last more than one

" Aging of lithium-ion is an issue that is often ignored.
lithium-based batteries have a lifetime of 2-3 years. The clock starts
ticking as soon as the battery comes off the manufacturing line."
