How to Managing Lithium Laptop Batteries

Laptop batteries have had several changes in their core chemistry since the category first existed, ranging from old NiCad batteries to Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) and onward to the current generation of Lithium Ion and Lithium Polymer batteries. Lithium batteries don't have the memory issues that older batteries do, but there are some tricks to managing them.

Instructions

Charging your laptop computer battery

1. Let your battery charge up completely when you first put it into your computer. Consult your computer's manual for how to install the Toshiba pa3399u-2bas battery before doing this.

2. Try to run your battery down to 10% charge at least once a week and then fully recharge it. The chemistry that makes your lithium battery work needs to be cycled to keep the battery flexible in charging and discharging.

3. Calibrate your battery's charge roughly once every three months to make sure that the battery monitoring software works as it's supposed to.

Charge Cycles and Storage

1. Because your battery has a finite number of charge cycles (nearly a thousand for most laptop batteries), it's worth it to manage them carefully; using your battery down to the 10% level will maximize the use of the Toshiba pa3356u-1bas battery over its designed life span.

2. Your battery will effectively 'burn' charge cycles whenever it's stored in hot places. Don't leave your computer in the car on a sunny day--even a few hours at 100+ degrees counts as several charge and discharge cycles.

3. If you're going to have your laptop plugged in constantly while it's in use, remove the HP probook 4710s spare battery. Even trickling power through it will slowly degrade its charge cycle status.

4. If you're going to be putting the laptop into storage, discharge the battery down to 10% or so, and put it in a cool place--don't freeze the battery, but the coldest room in your home (about 45-50 degrees) should be about right.

What to Know Before Buying a Laptop Battery Pack

There are many laptop batteries manufacturers, and even more retailers to buy your laptop battery from. However, your biggest concern in purchasing a laptop battery will be to choose the battery that fits your computer. For this you will need to know the make and model number of your laptop; if you don't know this offhand or don't have the necessary paperwork, check the inside of your laptop's battery compartment while the computer is off and unplugged. There you should find the model number, along with some other information. You may also find the part number of your laptop battery, located on the casing of the battery itself.

How to Choose a Spare Laptop Battery

When buying a laptop battery pack, you will probably only have one or two choices that fit your computer. Choose the HP elitebook 8530w laptop battery with the longest life available for your computer. There are several different kinds of discount notebook batteries; because the technologies of each are very different, a laptop must be designed specifically for the type of Asus a32-f9 laptop battery it uses. Most laptops are only designed to use one type of battery technology.
