Hi All,
I have a strange problem, regarding charging on my laptop. I've put HWiNFO64 on it, and all the time the laptop is charging, the "charge rate" field is showing around a whopping 625,000mW (625W!!) - this would suggest my 10.8V battery is being charged at about 58A, which I am quite sure would have cremated it very quickly! 25,000mW would be a more realistic figure, not 625. I tried a couple of battery monitors too, they show the same figure. However the battery does take roughly the normal amount of time to charge (about 2 or 3hrs).
So anyway, obviously this is completely wrong, but coincidentally when I click on the battery icon in notification area, it will say "1 minute until fully charged" (regardless of the battery's current charge), or simply "until fully charged" with no number before it at all.! Or sometimes just "plugged in, charging".
Has anyone else had these issues? Are they perhaps related? All I can find online so far is that the "1 min until charged" issue seems somewhat common on windows 10 machines.
Lenovo G780, Windows 10 Home.
