Powerbook G4 Titanium goes into standby after minutes on battery power

When I run my titanium off battery power, it always sleeps in about two minutes. I changed my powersave settings to never sleep on battery, but it still happens. When it goes into sleep, it won't wake until I plug the power cable in. The battery has a good charge, says 3 hours remaining. When I turn the computer back on it goes right back to where I was, I'm not completely loosing power. I'm relatively new to macs maybe I'm missing something obvious here? Is the battery bad?

check battery health with istat (widget).

if it's below 40% you should start worrying about your battery...

If one of the cells died it will have the same effect... .

if battery health is oké then I'd defenitely follow munky's instructions.

succes
