I've been known to go over 100 tabs in Firefox/Chrome. Once I started researching octane since so many people make comments on the subject without knowing anything about it. After a couple hours I realized I was studying organic chemistry and enjoying it. Anyhow, like the rabbit hole that is Youtube, I end up getting curious about an exponential number of things and my tabs get out of control.
You might need to disable wake on LAN (WOL) and USB wake events to keep that laptop sleeping.
My 5+ year old laptop goes at least 4hrs still (was over 10 when new). The key to a happy battery is to set it to not fully charge (set it to 80% or so), and to not discharge it deeply. Keep it plugged in as often as possible.
