How to care laptop battery

Technological developments allow us to do anything anywhere with a variety of portable devices. One laptop, so now we do not have to just stay at home to do chores, browsing, gaming or anything that can be done by the computer desktop. But there is a shortage of laptop that has a battery life that does not last long. If you take a laptop with a long time and often do, it is automatically a battery life will be reduced, as a result we have to buy a new laptop battery.


Well for that I had gone to the streets next to the famous forum, I found an interesting tips for care of laptop batteries. Here are tips:


  1. Do not store the laptop in bed / carpet / sofa. Laptops need air circulation because he took out the heat. If we keep the mattress, the heat will not come out.
  2. Use a cooling pad. Cooling pad can help reduce the temperature of a hot laptop. Laptops and batteries so not hot. Try looking for the direction the wind is blowing from the bottom up .. not the direction the wind is down / inhale air.
  3. Laptops today are sophisticated. So, if for example again until fully charged, he would break the flow by itself. So no need to lift the adapter.
  4. if the laptop ga used in a long time (eg one week) the laptop battery should be kept alone. Store in a dry plastic, kept store in a cool place. if you can save also some silica gel to prevent moisture.
  5. Do not store a laptop or a laptop battery in a car exposed to the sun. This can affect the performance of the laptop.
  6. Calibrate laptop battery at least once a month. How to calibrate laptop is the battery life remaining up to approximately 10-15%, then charge until full. This will move all the cells in the battery, so the condition is always excellent.
  7. Battery or laptop do not get hit much less fall. Do not also be stored / crushed heavy objects, because it will be vulnerable to short-circuit / short circuit, causing overheating.
  8. Avoid contact with water. Know the consequences. Although it will dry and can be used again, mildew and corrosion will eat away at the battery itself physically.
  9. Always use original batteries and chargers. Of course the original is more guaranteed quality?
  10. if longer use the laptop without the battery, keep the voltage stable electricity in our homes. The trick is to use a stabilizer. if no stabilizer, preferably replacing it wrote. Battery is not worth the price of damage to the laptop! better yet use UPS ... so when a sudden power failure, the laptop is still alive and we still managed to shutdown ..
  11. if the laptop is often in on-offkan for, do not shut down better but in sleep mode only. Because the power needed to light up when the laptop is smaller than the first time turn on the laptop.
  12. Use the power management control panel. Set the brightness below 50%, do not use screen savers strange, blank because the most efficient use of power, set the time too so not too long. Set also be a max battery power.
