    How often should a laptop battery be replaced?
    I've heard that you should*replace a laptop battery*every two years,such as ASUS G53SX-A1 Battery. I've also heard that it should be replaced once it can't keep a very long charge like it used to. At what point should it be replaced?

    REPLACE IT IMMEDIATELY.
    And then every 6th Tuesday, but only while Venus is in retrograde.
    - There is no such word as "can't" -
    - 60% of the time it works every time -

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite - Paul Dirac

    You can often reset the elk-tronics on certain laptop batteries by discharge-recharge cycles. Apparently they get confused if left plugged in all the time and not fully discharged.

    Depends on frequency and modes of the laser diodes within said laptop. It's all about the laser here. Go figure.
    Wiki:The first visible wavelength laser diode was demonstrated by Nick Holonyak, Jr. in 1962.
