Everyone should know that laptop battery life is not determined
by whole duration of usage but by times of charging and discharging. If you
never take off the battery from laptop, the battery will not be in full
capacity as you have thought when you shut down computer and disconnect AC
adapter. So, every time you connect or disconnect from power, laptop battery
begins to charge and discharge. Laptop battery life will be much affected.
If you search “laptop battery life” on google, there will
be many results tell you how to extended laptop battery life, now let’s learn
some tips from them.
1. Activate Your Laptop's power saver mode
You can find this power saver mode or eco mode in many
brand laptops, it can helps you easily engage a number of automatic changes to
lengthen usable battery life.
2. Adjust Your Laptop’s Display
One often overlooked power drain is keyboard
backlighting, you can turn the backlight off entirely unless you are in the
dark. And you don’t necessarily need the screen running at 100% brightness or
full resolution, so pleas reduce the brightness with the laptop hotkeys or
adjust it in the control panel. I think 50% will be good enough.
3. Disable Devices And Ports You Don’t Need
Actually there are plenty of functions we didn’t use in
our laptop, such as Bluetooth, I’m sure many people never use it, so why don’t
you disable it? Turn off the biggest power hogs, such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and graphics
processors, you will find the battery can last much longer time than before.
4. Turn Off Apps and Processes That You Are Not Using
Multiple apps and processes running on your system stealing
your battery juice, some of them running automatically and you don’t need them.
Open the Task Manage by press Ctrl+Alt+Del, look at the
open apps you may forgot to close. Next, go to the Processes tab. This shows
you what processes are currently running on your machine. While some of these
are needed, some, like those associated with music and video players or cloud
storage services (like Dropbox or Google Drive) can be disabled without causing
any problems.
If
you use your computer for too long, it could overheat and slowly damage
components, shortening their lifespan.
