What to bring to short meetings
A fully charged primary battery runs the computer for about 5 hours
under most circumstances. If your meeting is shorter than that, you
probably do not need to bring anything with you other than the
computer.
What to bring to long meetings
If your meeting will last longer than 5 hours or if your battery is not
fully charged, you may want to bring the AC adapter with you to plug

Fn-F4 or close the display cover whenever you are not actively using
the computer. To resume, open the display (if closed); then slide and
