Want to Improve Your Laptops Battery Health?

Can you picture how challenging it would have been to do business 30 years ago without a good laptop?

It’s a scary thought. Especially when you only have 30 minutes of battery left for an hour’s worth of work.

No one wants to be stuck with low battery during an important meeting or presentation. By understanding your laptop battery and following some tips, you can prolong its lifespan and keep it working well for years.

Most laptops today use lithium-ion batteries, which have a limited number of charge cycles. To preserve your battery, avoid letting it fully discharge whenever possible. Adjust your power settings to customize your battery preferences and make use of Hibernation mode to protect your battery before it runs out completely. Don’t forget to turn on Battery Saver mode to conserve power when the battery is almost empty.

Now, it’s time to tidy up. Close any extra apps running in the background and remove unnecessary power drains. Turn off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth when not using them and lower the screen brightness to save energy.

As for charging, don’t worry about keeping your laptop plugged in – modern devices are smarter than you think. Just avoid extreme temperatures and try not to let your battery drop below 20%.

When storing your laptop for an extended period, aim for around 50% charge. If you’re unsure, there are battery apps that can provide real-time insights into your battery’s health. Remember to keep your software updated for better performance and energy efficiency, giving your battery a longer life.
