Running on battery power

If the tablet has a charged battery installed and the AC adapter is disconnected from the tablet, the tablet automatically switches to battery power and the screen brightness decreases to conserve battery life. The battery in the tablet slowly discharges when the tablet is off and unplugged from external power.

Tablet battery life varies, depending on power management settings, programs running on the tablet, screen brightness, external devices connected to the tablet, and other factors.
