Best Tips for Laptop Battery Maintenance – Part II

By: Lisa Vangorp
 

Laptops are among one of common electronic gadgets in use by people these days. It represents set of those multipurpose electronic devices used for work, entertainment and business. People want to get the maximum benefits of all the functionalities provided by them. For that, all modern laptops come with high power Li-Ion batteries with long backup duration. However, the backup time claimed by the manufacturer may increase or decrease, depending on their use and maintenance.

To increase existing backup time or maintain the health of your laptop battery, follow these tips:

Use your battery in the proper conditions - Generally speaking, batteries work best at around 68°F (20°C), but temperatures between 32° to 95°F (0° to 35°C) will allow a battery to works in good condition too. Allowing your battery to work in conditions that are too hot or cold can lower its performance. It may also have a negative influence on the battery’s lifespan as well.

Store your battery in the proper conditions when not in use - If you don’t plan to use your notebook for a month or more, we recommend the battery be stored separately in a clean, dry and cool place. Please also ensure that the battery has about a 70% charge remaining. During storage the battery will perform a slow self-discharge, so we do not recommend storing it for a very long time (3 months or more), because it can impact the wellbeing of the battery.

Important Information Regarding Laptop Batteries

Higher capacity battery or spare batteries - Some notebooks may be offered with an option on a higher capacity battery, which may also be offered as a separate purchase. You can take advantage of both to extend your notebook’s unplugged time.

Replace the battery - A battery that has been cared for properly should provide at least 300 full charge and discharge cycles. You can choose to purchase a replacement battery when your original battery longer is no longer able to serve you properly. The main symptom of this is a much shorter runtime even after calibration.

Battery recycling - Please do not dispose of old notebook batteries in the rubbish bin as they can pollute the environment. Batteries should be recycled or collected for safe disposal through your local municipal or commercial programs.
