It is ideally a laptop battery can be used for at least two hours, but there are a few tips that can help you to increase battery performance, so the laptop battery to be more durable.

This is very helpful. I will turn down the brightness to help save the battery on my laptop. I wonder if it is good to leave my laptop plugged into ac power most of the time. Should I let the battery run down sometimes?

I think you also have to use the battery because the electric current that flows into a laptop sometimes unstable, except if you use a stabilizer or UPS

Very helpful and I think that screen saver also can diminish the life time of the battery.
