    Depends - average would probably be about 2-3 hours? Not great but not awful for my use.

    I could replace the battery and improve this - ifixit sell the kits - but currently I have no need.

      Ahh right, I’m getting about 4ish hours on my quite healthy battery on Mint, which felt short. I just fiddled about with TLP and dropped the discharge rate by half-ish. Otherwise it’s a great little low-cost device!

        Running Ubuntu on my 2015 air I struggle to get 2 hours out of it. I was able to get TLP to bring it close to 4, But it was at the cost of being borderline unusable.
