How to Save your Laptop Battery


Every day I use Laptop. Just like you, I wanted to make my laptop stay longer to use and work in a longer period of time. In my hours of usage, my battery can’t stay longer because of some annoying applications which are not being use.

The laptop batteries can stay for 4-6 hours of usage which depends in brand. I often forget or ignore it to keep cool because of work load and deadlines to submit some paper works. 

One day, I realize that batteries provides juice power to laptop and continuity of your work. But, how to keep your batteries sustain in a period of time and operational for a span of 3-5 years are questions that keep on popping regularly to my mind.

Listed below are my tips and tricks to keep it operational and stay in a period of time.

1. Do Not Overcharged your battery most of the time. Overcharging your battery well not guarantee or give you extra percent after it reach 100% and it might explode.


2. Do Not Discharged your battery repeatedly. The battery has a finite number of charge-discharge cycles, if you discharging your battery completely repeatedly it’s going to harm.

3. Do Not Overheat. Overheat is the biggest or worst enemy of your battery. Keep your laptop cool and put some fan to minimize the heat.

4. Use 30-10 minutes style. Thirty minutes of use and 10 minutes of cooling. This can help your laptop battery to rest and continue for a better years to come.

5. Activate your laptop’s Battery Save Mode. This will make automatic changes to give enough time to use your battery life.


6. Disable Unused Devices and Ports. Turning and disable some stuff off will reduce power consumptions like your like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth radios, graphics processors, and unused optical drives.

7. Adjust your Screen and Light Settings. Your screen consumes battery, while you obviously need to keep it up and running to use the laptop. You don't necessarily need it running at maximum brightness or resolution.

What is the difference between an input and output device?

An input device sends information to a computer system for processing, and an output device reproduces or displays the results of that processing. Depending on the interaction, a device can be both, referred to as an input/output or I/O device. An input device can send data to another device, but it cannot receive data from another device. Examples of an input device include a computer keyboard and mouse, which can send data (input) to the computer, but they cannot receive or reproduce information (output) from the computer. An output device can receive data from another device, but it cannot send data to another device. Examples of an output device include a computer monitor, projector, and speakers, which can receive data (output) from the computer, but they cannot send information (input) to the computer. An input/output device can send data to another device and also receive data from another device. Examples of an input/output include a computer CD-RW drive and USB flash drive...

Section 1.10.32 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum", written by Cicero in 45 BC

Where can I get?

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable.  If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc. What is Lorem Ipsum?

Long Text Test

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now...

Where does it come from?

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
