I'm a student and I use my laptop to study live classes. The live lectures run more than 4 hrs once if it started. After 2 hrs laptop charge become decreasing. So can I attend live class while plugging in charging

4 hours is not that long a time.  Battery should  not run down that quick.

 

Try the following to save power

 

Disable Bluetooth

Disable WiFi unless you need to be online

Prevent the CPU from running in turbo mode by setting %processor utilization to under %100

set all the %100 to a smaller value, even %50 is probably OK. 

 

Prepare battery for long usage:

Run a battery calibration (about once every 3-4 months)

Charge battery fully before class.

 

Battery should last about 5 years unless a gaming laptop.
