I’ll try removing the battery if it’s the same deal on the way home. I wouldn’t have even thought to try it. Now I just have to figure out how to do that. Can’t be hard…right? :-)</p> <p>As for recharging, I literally couldn’t keep juice flowing. Whether the laptop was on or off, no light appeared on the magsafe connector.</p> tag:robwilkerson.org,2008-05-12:/id/65//comment_137 2008-05-12T10:58:51-04:00 2008-05-12T10:58:51-04:00 Rob Brooks-Bilson http://www.brooks-bilson.com/blogs/rob/ <p>Rob,</p> <p>Regarding #8, next time try taking the battery out of your laptop before plugging it in. This works in many cases, depending on how much of a power hog your laptop is. Another option that often (but not always) works is to use the in-flight power to charge up your laptop. It has to be switched off, but it at least might allow you to recharge while you sleep.</p>
