Laptop battery does not drain at all

For the past 30 minutes the battery status in my Mac has been showing 90% without any change. How is that possible? Not a single drop? I was using chrome with three tabs open. I was using Safari to watch a YouTube video and my mail was open. Using those for sure would cause the battery to drop. I am starting to think that it might be frozen. Does your device last long with battery?

Maybe you need to calibrate your battery ? My laptop lasts about 4 hours on battery.

Maybe you need to recalibrate your battery. You can find information on how to do this on the Internet.

Ohh...that's strange. You need to repair it, I think. My battery can last for about 4 hours when I use it to watch youtube movies.
