You might probably know a few tricks for extending your laptop's battery life—whether by dimming the screen or switching off the Wi-Fi—but there are many other ways you can and should look after the battery to ensure its long-term health.
Every laptop battery degrades over time, however, you can help to make sure it stays in fine state to a longer period of use by heeding the advice we've laid out below. With some care and attention you can make sure your laptop battery last longer than speculated.
How to Care For Your Laptop’s Battery Properly.
#1 TEMPERATURE
Temperatures can have a big impact on battery life. Watch out for excessive heat, which is particularly unhealthy. Generally speaking, room temperature (or as close as you can get) is ideal. That means you shouldn't leave it lying in a packed trunk in the height of summer or on the window ledge of your skiing chalet. If you're at an uncomfortable temperature while you're working, then your laptop's battery will be too, so make adjustments accordingly.
#2 CLEANING
If you have a removable laptop battery, take it out and clean the metal contacts at either side once every couple of months with a dry cloth and alcohol solution. This helps to keep the transfer of energy to your computer as efficient as possible.
#3 AVOID CONSTANT CHARGING
To ensure your laptop battery has a long and healthy life, avoid leaving it constantly charged. It is important that the electrons inside are kept moving on a regular basis—think of it as being akin to getting up to exercise rather than sitting at a desk all day. Broadly speaking, the less frequently you use your laptop, the less frequent the discharges need to be.
The reason behind this is that a full charge puts your battery under more stress. If a laptop is plugged in all the time, the battery is working harder than it would be if it was slowly cycling between 40 percent and 80 percent. Some experts recommend removing the laptop battery entirely when the computer's plugged in to avoid overheating, particularly for intensive tasks. Letting your battery run all the way down every so often also helps calibrate it, making for more accurate power display readings.
#4 TURN ON POWER SAVER
Powersaver can make a significant difference to the level of juice you have left at the end of the day, and the less work your battery does, the healthier it will stay.
If you want to keep your laptop on for as long as possible, reduce its workload as much as you can: lowering the screen brightness, shutting down unnecessary applications, limiting your browser tabs and unplugging devices you're not using can all help as well.
