18Aug2014 (UTC +8) I've been using Thinkpads since 1998, but early this year, switched to Dell Latitude E6540 from a Lenovo Thinkpad W500.
Will never go back to a Thinkpad! Build quality and post-sales support has just been going down the drain, year after year. Anyway, I can go a max of 8 hours, according to the battery indicator of my Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Ubuntu's 14 LTS says it has better power management, but I'm happy with my 12.04 LTS. Must admit however, I have replaced the Seagate HDD with a Crucial MX550 SSD though, and have disabled the AMD Radeon GPU too.
