Reviving My Ten-Year-Old Razer Blade Laptop! So Long Windows 10…

It’s OLD, but it still works!

I have a lot of fond memories using the laptop, traveling, and producing content. It’s too old for me now, and Microsoft cut off updates for Windows 11.

The best way to measure this is with a watt meter that has a memory function (affiliate link for one below), but if you dont have one handy, you can still figure out a loose estimate on how much battery you should buy.

It’s a DUMB way to do it, but it does kinda work!
