I hate troubleshooting hardware. Got a new battery for my linux laptop and it will randomly shutdown after 30 seconds to five minutes of being unplugged. This is how I find out that linux is dogshit at managing battery power.

I've narrowed the problem down to two things, linux miscalculating the current charge because it hasn't gone through a full cycle yet or having a usb mouse plugged in is too much for it.
