Cosmos IX battery gone from good to barely usable

Hi all,

I have a Cosmos IX that I use mostly for audio and video work (and occasionnally for gaming), and I'm overall very happy with it.

I have the laptop for about 8 months, and the battery life went from about 4/5hours in low power profiles to 1/1.30. That's me just browsing the internet, in power saving mode, with low screen lighting etc.

I know that batteries are meant to lose their efficiency over time but I am quite disappointed by the fact it happened in such as short time. I guess I'm hoping you guys will have suggestions for things that might improve it, or maybe advices to care for a laptop battery in the future? I do feel like I was taking care of it, only doing high power tasks wired and only using the battery when I'm somewhere I can't really be using the cable.
