Laptop battery

Hi there,
I have a new Hp laptop running Windows Vista home premium - it seems great except for a few minor glitches...
However, when I turn the machine off and leave it even overnight the battery drops to 80 something % of it's maximum potential. If I leave it for a few days it can be below half of full capacity. I always turn it off properly (ie I don't use sleep or hibernate). Is this sort of battery drop normal or might there be a problem? Thanks.
