Laptop Dies Sporadically When Not Plugged In

[gerket]

I have a Gigabyte P34V2. It works perfectly fine whenever it is plugged in. However, whenever it is not plugged in it will usually die within 1-10 minutes of usage, even with over 50% charge on the battery. I read in another forum about someone having a similar problem and that it might be a voltage issue or something. Are there some tests I can run to troubleshoot?

Kasper is correct. A strong sign of a dying battery is that it says it has this much of a charge but then doesn't run the device. They often give false % readings when they are dying.

It's usually caused by a dying battery as in your battery is no longer and need to be replaced.

^What they say. Worn battery will give out wrong readings, not to be relied on. Do you know how many cycles you got? Battery health <80% and that puppy is done for.
