Several problems of small portable notebook power can not be ignored biggest advantage is not considered space, the use of anytime, anywhere, which is the reason for each of the laptops is the reason The most important performance in a portable Laptop battery embodied an important factor. Most laptops use the time not too long, then how do the laptops more energy saving has become the key to using a laptop, we now speak of some minor problems the consumer portable power.
Thermal
On the surface, cooling pad and energy-saving notebook no connection, in fact, a very close relationship between the two. Laptop because of their small and depend on the natural flow of cooling air is almost impossible, so a large number of them, such as the use of technology by heat pipe cooling, but when temperature is too high, the notebook will boot-up cooling fan to help the San heat. As the device is used in temperature controlled fan, and only when the temperature reaches a certain program will start, so that we can assist Notebook Cooling, the temperature control of a mobile good, you can reduce the temperature controlled fan at startup, so it is difficult not view mobile schedule. When using the laptop to the extent that the use of a well-ventilated, be careful not to let debris blocked cooling holes of the laptop IBM ThinkPad X60 battery, if it is broken into the house and office, friends can stay with preparing a cushion of water (that is, the kind of pour the liquid mats, most people sitting on relatively cool in summer), then use the laptop on mat of water, since water has a high thermal conductivity, we can fully absorb the heat generated by laptops, notebooks, so that kept at a lower temperature.
CPU operating frequency
Handling mobile laptops and some desktop CPU and the general use of the CPU is a big difference, the mobile version of the operating frequency of CPU is generally not fixed, it will be with the software to modify the requirements Labor processor CPU frequency, of course, the cost will be higher over the operating frequency of electricity, so try not to run the laptop on the relatively high demands on the software of the CPU, so that the operating frequency of the processor can be controlled to some extent to achieve energy saving versions of tasks.
Set Power Management
In the Windows Control Panel, you can define procedures for power management, can in general it is set to “Laptop”. I also suggest that we in the display properties screen saver is set directly to “black” and the waiting time is set at 5 minutes, so when we do not operate in a period of time laptops, it will guide black state, which should be other than the screen saver is being more energy efficient.
Some manufacturers of brand name phones generally provide a little more professional software power management, in line with their own laptop to use, they often have specific characteristics: for example, dedicated program management sony VGP-BPS2A battery energy can adjust the speed of cooling fan, you can also disable the non-use of the IEEE1394 interface and Memory Stick slot, so saving energy versions of tasks, IBM program power management can reduce refresh rate of the LCD; management program toshiba battery may be if energy deficiency Direct closure of any of your designated aircraft. The rational use of this software can even be extended from time to portable use.
Hard
For portable hard drive, it is one of the most power-hungry components, so that the state will be read-write power consumption, the program visits more hard disk drives to be more power in normal circumstances not the hard drive to run software on a large scale, and does not use the battery in the disk defragmentation conduct. Laptop users can conditionally, to just increase the physical memory, the system reduces the use of virtual memory, using WIN98 system, if the physical memory of 256 MB, you can disable virtual memory, which would also a good way to power. In addition, you can also set the hard disk stops working hours to enable the hard drive when the time comes to enter the stall condition, please note that this time must be based on the use portable hard drives at a reasonable setting, turn off the hard drive if the weather is too short, the drive may be frequent start and stop turn, this will also affect the lifetime of the disk drive hp Pavilion dv4 battery.
Drive
Notebook computer disk device is power-hungry, working at full speed in the disk drive is more than the cost of electricity but also have greater heat, so when we do not long ago, then it would be preferable to CD-ROM CD-ROM taken from the CD-ROM drive. Like most laptops use low-speed 20-speed CD-ROM, usually does not suggest that you use the drive spin-down of software in order to avoid placing too much to read the disk speed of ‘impact. For most CD-ROMs used frequently, the best method is to use virtual drive software on its virtual hard disk, which is the most energy efficient approach.
Peripherals
General will be many mobile devices, you can use, but please note that these devices as connected to the laptop, even if the computer does not work use electricity, so when we no need to use these devices the best time to prevent the laptop Aspire 3000 battery was taken down. There are a number of devices such as LPT ports, COM port, etc., will not work, the power consumption of the laptop, if you do not use these ports, preferably in the BIOS to disable it. If your device is the infrared port and wireless card when not in use, you can put them off. Many of my friends using the laptop when they prefer to use an external mouse, for saving electricity needs, preferable to use a mouse for laptop turns on, even if you want to use an external mouse, I suggest not use the optical mouse, because it is the mouse to be more than the usual electric charge.
Software
Select the software running in a laptop, we do not have to use certain features comprehensive, but very demanding on system software, we can also choose others who have similar features but a low need for software, as we only need a simple typing, you do not need to use Office XP, its features, while powerful, but requires more system resources, we can use lower version of WINDOWS office2000 just the same with WordPad and Notepad to achieve the same head, how can dramatically reduce the CPU and the hard drive of laptops use a laptop apple MacBook Pro 15 inch battery is also a good way to save.
