How to maximize laptop battery life

1. It is a good start to activate your new laptop battery. The new laptop should have 3% of the electricity when you start a press at first boot (It is also common practice of manufacturers. Your laptop is certainly used by others if you opened it the first time and find out that the battery is already full). At the moment, you should not use an external power and go on using this battery until your notebook shutdown automatically. Then you can charge your laptop battery with an external power. Please note: the charging time must be more than 12 hours and repeat three times so as to activate your laptop battery.

2. If you are not going to use the laptop for several days, take the battery out of the computer. It is incorrect whether your battery is full or empty. In fact, preserving a empty battery long-term will lose its activity, and even cause the control circuit protection self-locking and can not reuse; but preserving a full battery long-term will bring about safety problems. So the most ways to preserve the battery is that the battery discharge about 40% of the electricity, and then preserve. The lithium battery is afraid of high temperature and humid air, so it should be placed in a cool dry place, but the temperature can not be too low, otherwise the capacity will be greatly reduced, around 20 degrees Celsius is the ideal storage temperature.

3. Once a month, allow the battery to drain completely. Make sure you have saved all your work and leave no programs open while draining the battery.
4. Shut down any unnecessary software on a laptop. Anything you’re running, even in the background will reduce battery time. And take advantage of your standby and hibernate modes.
