Some tips of laptop / notebook battery
Here are some tips of laptop / notebook battery:
how to change a laptop / notebook battery
Rechargeable notebook computer batteries tend to decrease in performance life over time and usage. Generally, a reduction in battery life can be noticed after 18 to 24 months. Once the battery life can no longer meet your portable needs, then it would be time to purchase a new battery. Notebook batteries can be widely found online (see References below); make sure that the battery is compatible with the make and model of your notebook computer.
tep 1 Completely shut down the laptop and disconnect any cables that are plugged in.
Step 2 Shut the monitor closed and flip the computer over so that the underside is facing you.
Step 3 Press and move your thumb towards the direction arrow labeled on the battery safety release latch.
Step 4 Remove the battery in an upward motion. Repeat this motion in the opposite direction when inserting the new battery.
Step 5 Plug in the AC adapter cable to the notebook for about 8 to 12 hours to ensure a full battery charge.
how to clean notebook battery contacts
Step 1 Remove the battery from your laptop so that you are able to access the contacts.
Step 2 Locate the contacts. The contacts are the only metal, shiny pieces on the battery. They are located where the battery connects to the laptop.
Step 3 Dip a clean, dry cloth into rubbing alcohol.
Step 4 Wring out any excess alcohol over a sink or the alcohol bottle. You want the cloth to be only damp, not dripping.
Step 5 Rub the damp cloth over each of the battery's contacts to clean them.
Step 6 Use the dry cloth to dry any excess alcohol that may drip or run from the battery contacts.
Step 7 Replace the battery into the laptop.
how to maintain laptop / notebook battery
- Step 1
Take the battery out when the notebook is plugged in. Heat is one of the biggest detriments to the health of battery cells. Since laptops are usually set to run at full power when plugged in, the extra heat generated will eventually diminish the life of your battery.
- Step 2
Drain the battery pack to about 45 to 50 percent before removing it for extended storage. (Check the battery monitor in your operating system's task bar.) Store the battery in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Step 3
Use the notebook until the power runs down before charging it again (the Power/Standby light will blink and/or an alarm will sound). This minimizes the number of charge cycles, which will prolong the life of the battery.
- Step 4
Set your operating system's power options to maximize battery life. In Windows XP, for example, click on the "Start" menu, then "Control Panel," "Performance and Maintenance," "Power Options," and then "Power Schemes." Select "Portable/Laptop," then click "OK."
- Step 5
Restart the computer and enter the BIOS (usually by pressing the "F1," "F2" or "Delete" key). Most newer notebooks have advanced BIOS features that control the amount of power used by internal components like the CPU. Set the power options to maximize battery life (refer to your owner's manual if necessary).
how to extend your laptop or notebook battery life
Don't ya just hate it when you are using your notebook or laptop and suddenly you get the message on your screen that your battery is 'critically low'? Well, here are a few simple steps to saving that battery life or at least stretching it out as long as possible.
First, adjust your power options on your operating system.
All laptops are slightly different so you will want to consult your users manual but most models will offer: balanced, power saver, and high performance options.
Choose the "power saver" option for the maximum battery saver or choose the "balanced" option for maximum performance. The "High performance" option should only be used when you have your laptop plugged into an outlet.
Second, Most IBM/ Windows XP, and Vista users will be able to access their settings this way:
*Click "START" and then "Control Panel"
*Click "Performance maintained" (you may have to go to category/view first)
*Click "Power Options"
*Click the small arrow under the "Power Schemes" tab
*Click "Max Battery"
*Click "OK"
The Apple iBooks, Powerbooks, and MacBooks have their own settings to reduce battery usage whenever possible. From the 'main menu:
*Click: "System preferences"
*Click: "View menu" then: "Energy saver"
*Click "Show details"
*Select "battery" (or 'battery power')
*Select "longest"
Third, For more information, on access to these settings, consult your users manual.
