When running a DVD, the battery lasts 2 hours 19 minutes, and the lowest time of use is 1 hour 17 minutes when the laptop is on full brightness and on high processor load.

If you are a regular user of the Compaq Presario C700 adapter, once in a while you should exercise the battery by letting the laptop run unplugged.
