I've got some weird behavior going on and just wondering if it's a common or heard of problem and if anyone could offer me any assistance.

1. I started noticing a few days ago that when the battery is fully charged, the tiny light on the cord does not stay lit green, it alternates between green and orang every few seconds, almost like a blinking light.

2. My battery life is significantly in the suck. I've also only noticed this within the last few days, but after a full charge my battery gets me about 1 hour and 20 minutes of use even with screen brightness down and power settings on low.

Can anyone shed some light on this?
