How to maintain & increase lifespan of laptop battery ?

 

Today, we are going to learn on those two topics above. All the laptops we are using today have rechargeable batteries. Some have built in, and some have removable batteries. Many of you might have seen the battery life decreases over time, and once the battery life decreased, it is hard to increase the battery life again. So, let’s maintain the battery well to increase the lifespan of our laptop batteries! 😀 😀 😀 This tip will work with most of the modern laptops and smartphones. Let’s get started.

 

1. How to break in new laptop & smartphone battery

 

Let’s say you just purchased a new battery for your laptop or smartphone. In our understanding, most people will just use their laptops and smartphones right away after installing, but this is not a good way to use your new battery. Most batteries need break-in period just like speakers. Without any break-in, the battery reading or battery life will not be accurate. Breaking in batteries will help the batteries perform the optimal performance. Let’s learn how to do it.

1. Install your new battery to your device, and charge it for overnight with your device turned off. Do not use your device (laptop or smartphone) right away.

2. After the battery fully charged, unplug the power adapter, and start to use your device to discharge the battery. Use it until your device shuts down or until it says low battery.

3. Repeat this 3 – 5 times.

as you break-in your battery, you will notice that your battery life becomes longer. After repeating it more than 3 times, your battery will be optimized and ready to use. 😀 😀 😀

 

2. How to maintain & increase lifespan of laptop battery (Only for laptops)

 

We are now going to learn how to maintain your laptop battery properly to maximize the lifespan. Here are some tips.

1. Do full charging & discharging once a month.

2. When your laptop is fully charged, unplug the power adapter and use with battery power.

3. If you are using your laptop at home, remove the battery, and use with power adapter.

4. If you are not using your laptop for a long time, remove the battery and store it separately.

If you manage the battery well, your battery life will not be decreased quickly. 🙂 🙂 🙂 We hope the information is helpful for you.

Thank you.
