Li-Ion batteries do not have that fast of a discharge rate, so you will be sitting there for a while (months?) for it to discharge.
Also, they probably built in for it to have 5 or 10 percent more battery life than it lets on. This gives you 10 minutes or so to go plug it in... or save your documents. _________________
