The following general application tips help gain you valuable time, whether it's for working on the move or enjoying your time off. Quick changes for long-lasting battery operation:
- Reduce your Screen Brightness
Your laptop screen eats up power relentlessly. Dim the brightness of your screen using the function keys on your notebook to greatly reduce battery consumption.
- Remove or Turn Off Unnecessary Devices
Unplug USB sticks or external drives from your notebook in order to extend your battery life, and only turn on energy-zapping devices such as WiFi receivers, network connections, webcams, and DVD drives when you actually need them. At other times, we recommend that you turn them off using the function keys, the Windows device manager, or special energy-saving programs. - Use "Max Battery" Mode
Reduce your computer's power consumption by clicking on the little battery icon on the task bar and then selecting "Max Battery" mode. Although this does slightly reduce processor and graphics performance, your battery will last significantly longer. - Unplug from AC power, if laptop if fully charged. Developing this habit, will ensure your laptops battery life at its max.
