I wonder if your battery or power supply are different. None of mine take that long to charge.
Good point. I'm not sure whether my battery or power supply have issue or not. I brought the whole set and I expected it should work out from the box.
I used the PBP for two weeks only after I received it. Originally want it runs 24/7 as my ssh vpn routing machine but gave up after it run out of power every 2 days and I have to charge it for another day. Also tried to use it as a developer machine. Mainly terminal editing using vi and cc for compilation.
I eventually gave up and brought the Raspberry Pi 400 and is now running headless 24/7.
I still looking for a laptop form factor linux machine and I do like the PBP especially the keyboard.

BTW, would you mind to run some tests on your PBP non-stop for a couple days. I'm curious whether your PBP is better than mine.
If you want to help, I'll give you the instruction later on.
