air 13 (late 2010) and lion 10.7.2 - battery problem

[BIS]

2 month ago, when i was bought MacBook Air 13, battery discharges after 5-6 hours. Day by day i working, installing new software ect
Now battery runs not more than 2 hours.

Whats wrong ?

And once more problem: first month, air turn on fans only when i started hard application, like games or graphics apps. No it sounds forever - if i only browsing internet - fans forever running.

I checked startup applications - its empty. Only 1 software running.

Where to serch problem ?

Sorry for worth english - it was just russian school

Thanks al in advance.

Read the BATTERY LIFE FROM A CHARGE section of the following link. This should answer most, if not all, of your battery questions:

Blame Lion. I went back to SL as my battery life dropped to by more than 50%. Now it's back to 6-7 hours.

Tests have shown that Lion reduced the battery life of C2D Macs: http://www.anandtech.com/show/4485/back-to-the-mac-os-x-107-lion-review/24

Check out the Lion forum, lots of battery life threads there. Lion is Mac's Vista- resource hog.
