Tips for Laptop Battery Care

Tips for Laptop Battery Care 2011 : 
 1. Dim Your Screen

Almost all the new laptops come with an option of dimming the screen. Some of these laptops also have an option by which you can control the CPU's cooling performance. Cut these to their lowest levels so as to make the most of your battery savings. 


2. Cut the Extra Programs
When you are working on your laptop on its battery, make sure you cut down on all the extra programs that are running in the background for no important reason. Sending an email to your client while working on a spreadsheet and listening to a new album of Justin Timberlake, all on your laptop battery, will lead you nowhere as the battery drains out faster while multitasking, since it gives a lot of load to the CPU.




3. Cut Down on the External Devices
Using USB devices, DVD drives on laptop consumes a lot of battery when your laptop is unplugged. Shut these applications when you are not using them. Even the USB mouse that you might use at times, will lead to faster battery drainage. 

4. Hibernate or Stand-by?
This is the most frequently asked question in laptop battery care and the answer is hibernate! The reason behind this is that stand by option does save laptop battery but not as much as hibernating does! Hibernating your laptop will save it in a condition the way it is and completely shut itself down, hence saving more battery.


5. Battery Cleaning
It is very important in laptop battery care to clean your laptop's battery. You must clean your laptop battery's metal contacts once every two months. Use a soft cloth and rub it with alcohol to moisten it. This will help in keeping the transfer of power from the battery more efficient.


6. Defrag Your Hard Drives
Defragging your hard drive will make it work more efficiently. An efficient hard drive always works faster and eases the load on the laptop's battery, reducing its consumption and leading to battery savings.


7. Set Power options
Laptops come with various options for their power settings. Make sure you keep your laptop's power settings to "optimized use" or in "power saver" modes while working with battery on. It will increase the battery back up for your laptop.
