Better components, lighter, more efficient and fast mobile computing with a processor chip. But Laptop Battery Achilles heel again. So, here we consider how to improve the battery life of your laptop.
Graphics modern intensive farming systems and applications, notebook computers per day, thus reducing tehosyöppö battery life. 3 to 4 hours of continuous operation for as long as the battery is maintained. Therefore, the battery drain very quickly your “journey” road mobile and use a stick can be rapid.
Additional battery pack on my back pack down in the short term, there are ways to keep the battery juice.
1. Size of ships and a crazy
On a regular basis for the organization of information will help better, do not use data from a hard work. Be faster hard drive, the battery charge. Therefore, the battery life. Have little effect, but the hard drive capacity and maintenance of hand is involved in manually.
2. Gobblers Resource killed
Finally, the background process, it is not necessary. Monitor use Grace, “Ctrl – Alt – Del” Press the Windows Task Manager (Windows), is based on the provision of resources. If you’re not on the Internet, be sure to stop non-urgent, such as anti-necessary program, virus and firewall running on the taskbar. Running toward the funeral business – utility Msconfig – Tags: launch configuration management system. You do not want to start programs and restart the computer Delete.
3. Work planned for the break
This may be an idiot or a virus scan, but make sure that when near the outlet, was created. If you do not have the New York Knicks.
4. Disconnect external devices
USB device is the biggest battery drain. An external mouse, PC card, wireless networking, speakers, external, Bluetooth, and also all external devices to connect the iPod as a disconnect.
5. Blank CD / DVD Drive
Even if you two do not use it, no CD / DVD-ROM outstanding. Spinning like a sponge sucking battery.
6. Go Local
To stop the use of DVD / hard drive and battery, the external work. Floppy disk or markets high-performance materials, free (use) virtual drive, Pismo file as mountains, and even Microsoft Virtual CD-ROM in the control room.
7. Lighting
LCD is the second largest country sink Notebook. Brightness function keys or Control Panel applet to use the lowest level of the display calibration settings using the switching can be tolerated.
8. Kill Rated
Speaker mute, as far as possible avoid the use of multimedia software to maximize battery life. Install a sound system, a drainage capacity.
9. Screensaver RID
A battery, screen saver around.
10. Electricity access options
Power Management “Explore the Power Options applet in Control Panel.” XP and Vista as advanced management and control of electricity coming from / or from the hard drive specified time. Depends on the selected “power of the same applet System (XP). For example, XP, ‘Max Battery” power system may choose to optimize the battery.
Similar settings can be found under ‘Mobile PC’ in the Control Panel of Vista/7.
11 turn off the looks.
Such as today’s Windows Vista operating system comes with features like Aero “glass, which is resource greedy. You turn off the “outside the classic ‘look, which uses less energy can be. In Vista desktop – settings – display color – form – Classic design and basic graphical interface, click Windows. XP’s – Display Properties - Themes – Windows Classic.
Linux and Mac is still better suited for longer battery life.
12 hibernate is better than sleep
Standby mode (or sleep), is running on a computer hard disk and screen, but the memory is still active while the processor brake. It is based on batteries. In contrast, sleep better, because the computer saves the current situation and closes, and saves energy.
13 More … Work at least
Too many programs while working on battery drain is sure fire. Keep using a minimum of graphics applications. Work with a table is less than your favorite game to play. For battery life, only one or two programs open with.
14 Ram and more RAM
RAM too, virtual memory, which is common as a burden on your hard disk reduces. Although each additional RAM and more energy efficient, using power-hungry hard drive to cut down the total savings would increase.
15 Keep It Clean
Generate more heat off a laptop with air vents and will reduce battery life. Lower operating temperature over time to keep vents clear. Opening of the surrounding open space for air circulation is expected. Prevent entry of dust around a notebook to keep clean.
16 temperature is a silent killer
Excessive heat kills batteries slowly but surely. In direct sunlight or a closed car going into the laptop must be avoided.
17 Avoid memory effect
For large problem with the old Ni MH battery for Li – ion battery, which most modern laptop. When partial performance after the end of the memory effect battery rechargeable battery. The battery can be avoided completely and is fully charged, then discharged. Li – ion batteries, on the other hand, partial and full vacation leave and have no problem with refilling is not recommended for this type.
18 software and drivers
Seems a bit contradictory, but often new drivers and software efficiently (and hopefully less expensive is designed for hunger).
19 correct adapter to use
Make sure you use laptop adapter for battery specifications with the original one is right or make it. For cotton and thus overloading the discrepancy and notebook battery can damage.
20 packaging
If you for a certain time to ensure that around 40 percent – the battery in a cool place to shop and then use the laptop battery.
A typical – an average life of lithium ion battery is 2-3 years. With some attention could be delayed mortality.
