For laptops have a friend, I think if you work or at home, do not want their laptops because of failure leading to results of the work or the loss of private documents. How can we prevent the failure rate of laptops to a minimum? What can your Laptop battery consistently and honestly work for you? In fact, as you usually pay more attention under a rarely laptops, some maintenance work and maintenance required, can easily lead to immediate results.

 

Here in the normal course of using the laptop users need to pay more attention to certain issues a brief summary of the hope that our experience can help. Therefore we will first laptop to the attention of new aircraft a matter of daily use to maintain and prolong the life of a laptop and maintenance techniques described in three aspects.

 

First, buying new planes earlier this month so that the new laptop users should be aware is the first battery. Just started using a new IBM ThinkPad T42 battery when the electrical characteristics and use of a period of time after the performance substantially different, mainly reflected in the charging process appear premature end (the phenomenon of false track), washed and post – Power supply is not a sustainable end. As we all know, these problems can be repeated by the user full charge / discharge to be improved to get the best battery performance. Note that although the new battery can be recharged directly led to use, but if the user at the beginning of a bad use, battery performance tends to reach the highest level. In the message you just a new machine, please do not just charge the battery, due to manufacturers of portable plant would be charged a small portion of the battery power for perform functional tests, so you get a laptop, or have some remaining capacity, and ask you to first open the power of the laptop, I’ll post a clean electricity, and then reload it. The general practice is the first row to load and discharge the battery three times before we can allow the battery to fully preheat the real potential to play a show.

 

Said refers here to the charging and discharging of the battery is full the needs of users / unloading of the net, remember, must be completed, put a clean, filled and then is resurrected in a clean place, so repeat 3 times. Then you can use a normal battery. Some laptops were set in the BIOS, it is the function of calibrating the Dell Inspiron E1705 battery, users can more easily take the laptop battery right to maintain a regular basis to get the best battery operable today, congratulations you, your laptop battery can operate in the best condition of batteries.

 

In addition, newly bought laptop, its screen is very fragile, because manufacturers tend to stick a layer of protective film screen to achieve the goal of protecting the screen, this layer of protective film before use is Jiediao necessary, because if you do not Jie will seriously affect the display of images. In the present process requires your attention, and some paste computer screen protection film very tight, the clock must be slower to expose some, along a corner the screen, step by step tear film protector. Do not force too much, too quickly to avoid damaging the screen, so that premature aging of yellowing. Here to remind users of laptops for HSTNN-LB31 battery film screen protector, it is better not throw them in keeping future maintenance of useful, specific practices will be reintroduced later.

 

For the intimate details of the user, you can also seek a protective film screen and make their own decorative paste-like plastic material of the gate as easily be attached to satisfy the location to better care of your love machine. A similar device, we love the Sony, Acer and other details of some of the emphasis on the use of the laptop can also be seen above, while in actual use, we recommend that you try not to take the watches, bracelets and other items to use laptops, because it is very easy to inadvertently remains serious wear the wrist, giving laptops warehouse Daodao scars. In addition, choose a bag for laptop toshiba PA3383U-1BRS battery quality is also very necessary.

 

After all, for most laptops is that they are born to be brought brought in the laptop bag suitable naturally give their most intimate. This is one of the users of the new laptop, perhaps to note that not all laptops first wife of the package are really appropriate. Package and general office is different from a bag really well-designed laptop must first have enough strength and protection of the four sides of insulation layer to support a laptop safe and comfortable “nest of ‘Love. ” Regular Office packages often due to too much room and design of the flexible structure, foreigners can not effectively isolate the backlog, and the collision.

 

Secondly, there should be a reasonable sub accessory office design, such that power must be placed in the laptop compartment near the coast to avoid being inadvertently pressed the power plug when the ‘LCD laptop screen scratched. Meanwhile, the laptop bag should also have some capacity tight.

 

Secondly, routine maintenance, such as laptops portable mobile computing devices, in fact, major manufacturers in its robustness, durability and so apple M8403 battery much has been done, but another solid laptop, also a user in using negligent in the process of failure. So how can we allow users to try to avoid errors in using it daily this section, we discuss the main issues.

 

Screensaver in the previous paragraph, we discussed the movie screen protection, this layer of protection film, we recommend that you do not use the laptop when the paste, use a laptop when the re-Jiexia Lai, so you can effectively protect the external screen chemistry coating, so that the outermost layer of the coating will not prematurely oxidized. Users in the process of using a laptop, do not readily hand to refer to / from the LCD, or touch the screen with a hard object, if you pay regular attention to the words of a time appear on the LCD, such as white and India are not always wipe scars to go to when I really regretted it, and. The new machine package usually with a layer of tissue paper, you can also this layer of tissue paper in between the laptop screen and keyboard, thus reducing the health check between the screen and wear. If your laptop Aspire 3000 battery using the trackpoint, so we recommend you also carries a laptop in a long distance when they come out only able to remove the storage TrackPoint cap to prevent the screen is wound up.

 

Water can be described as a laptop “natural enemy”, in addition to the side of the computer to avoid drinking beverages, eating fruit, it should also be careful not to be stored in damp the machine, the serious moisture damage in the components of liquid crystal display. Note in particular that in the winter and summer, and the output of a heating or air conditioning room, a large temperature difference will cause a “condensation” occurs, the user as when the power electrodes for liquid crystal LCD may also lead to corrosion, resulting in permanent nature of damage. This end, we also recommend that you change the room temperature should not exceed 10 / 10min. Water situation in the case of the screen, if one finds in the trunk before the screen surface haze, wipe gently with a soft cloth and start over. If water has entered the LCD, the LCD should be placed in warmer places, such as table lamps, will gradually evaporate the moisture inside. In rainy season, we should pay attention to on a regular basis for some time to run laptop computers to dissipate the heating element tide, preferably a laptop ac adapter bag can also save a bundle of ‘moisture proof agent, for the love machine to create a good home.

Detailed analysis of the three errors of laptop battery maintenance and use

Posted by admin on October 13, 2009
Digital battery / No Comments

As the laptop battery belonging to the “expensive consumables, it has sparked much controversy on the use of laptop.

 

With the growing popularity of laptops, notebooks on all aspects of the problems appeared in various media on the largest number of arguments for the proper use of Laptop batteries, notebook batteries of certain items that the use of personal experience, while others claim expert advice, all sorts of stories, the number argument.

 

The author is also a notebook users, although not an expert, but with several years experience in the use of notebooks, the author through a friend recruited dozens of students university using a laptop, so they talk about their experiences on the use of cell phones, coupled with 1:00 on his own experience, summed up what made accessible to everyone as a reference, hope to give each a little help.

 

Argument 1

 

Activating a new battery

 

Point 1: Before you buy a new battery inside, there will be more than 3% of electricity, more than the Dell Inspiron 1521 battery inside the power exhausted, to rest, and reuse of ‘burden of external power. The charging time must exceed 12 hours, three times in order to activate the laptop battery.

 

Point 2: No, the battery for 10 hours of rechargeable battery to activate the activity of the normal load, the method of release for activation.

 

Survey Results: The author investigated 24 students and college notebook users, 18 are the second view and the manner and do not charge the battery for future use can hurt of course, exclude damage to the natural elements. The author himself is also the case when the normal use of a new battery for up to two hours and a half, now two years, the state of the hp 367759-001 battery is still good, still can reach more than two hours, so I was satisfied.

 

The proposed method: I agree with the second hypothesis, based on information available indicates that the activation of cell work should be completed at the factory and a plant cell battery with a capacity of some natural wear to avoid damaging the battery. The activation of the battery must be in no case to protect the circuit can be with its own circuit of lithium-circuit protection, the purpose of this part of the circuit is to prevent the battery charge and excessive discharge usually filled after charging the battery when the indicator light off, the battery can be recharged in electricity, and then you plug the power plug to recharge the battery in the face of what? Available from the battery can be seen on the battery status of any charges, another teaches you offer a simple way to be able to determine whether there during the battery charging, battery charge, where the phenomenon has a fever, when the sony VGP-BPS5 battery is full after one hour (power plug does not fire), you’ll try the battery to see if the battery is still warm, not hot? The result is undoubtedly the cold, because the battery is not charging and discharging state is certainly not the heat. Manufacturers of portable computers in the factory will offer a new battery for more than 10 hours. This sentence may be generated for some users the wrong point of view first, the author of this opinion, should be taken into account that some notebook manufacturers a new user in the battery again when n is not fully capture the skills, just so they can charge directly for 10 hours, which should be the business opportunity.

 

Argument 2

 

Whether to disconnect the power supply external laptop battery?

 

View 1: Use an external power supply when the battery removed.

 

Item 2: Use an external power supply is not necessary to remove the battery.

 

Survey Results: Most students in the use of an external power source, the battery removed, only a few use an external power supply when the battery is placed above, the little marks are used by students of several global brands.

 

The proposed method: In fact, if the toshiba PA3191U-3BRS battery is removed, the conflict has focused on the use of an external power supply when the battery is in charge of question. We must know that the number of loading and unloading of the battery life is directly related to the lithium-General established the number of loading and unloading are fixed number of charge cycles only 400-600 times, especially products modified, but 800 times, once for each rechargeable batteries a step toward retirement. The first argument is simply because they are afraid to use power, the battery will be conducted on the above charge, not only to increase the number of charge cycles, but also cause an overload. The second view is that the battery is full power on the computer using an external power supply will not recharge. In fact, both views have their right side, but also in the wrong place. Because only the views expressed by individuals is not very full after my investigation, many laptop manufacturers taking into account the vulnerability of the stack, and the proceeds added to technology protection battery, and therefore different laptop batteries corresponding brand protection technology pricing is different, as some large companies are doing very well in this area, such as IBM, Hewlett-Packard, Toshiba, Compaq, etc.. One of the most thoughtful consideration is that IBM, the IBM laptop can detect the location of the discharge of the battery, laptop battery ThinkPad only less than 95% of the time will reload automatically. This can play a very good protective effect on the TravelMate 290 battery, held today and many other manufacturers followed. So, as drums, you do not have time to use pull down, because only when the capacity is less than 95% of the time, he is responsible. But even so, if you are prolonged use of computers, or will be removed from the battery to compare well, because the long duration of heat generated when the laptop battery will cause some damage. However, some other “little brand” batteries, may not benefit from such treatment because he was not within the protection technology of the battery. I like to use a certain brand of computers phones if the battery is fully charged to the above, when you use an external power supply has been confirmed at the first charge on electricity, because the storage battery, will wear, can not reach 100 %, while not 100% as long as the power supply connected to the load. Each access to an external power supply is equivalent to recharge the IBM ThinkPad X60 battery once, although only a small charge will be yet. It therefore proposes that we use when the machine according to their own situation, look at the manual laptop, choose whether you want to use an external power supply when the battery removed.

 

Argument 3

 

How to load correctly?

 

Point 1: The battery pack should always be all exhausted, so that consumption of portable computers to automatically stop and then reload it, all must be completed.

 

Item 2: The notebook batteries have a very deliberate use of time to pay attention and use when I wanted to pay extra.

 

Survey Results: Most students said that, needless to the view first, as used in automatic standby mode, then load, but also as the second point of view, it is free. Are generally used when the Dell 75UYF battery must be recharged when the computer has prompted further charge, of course, calls per hour may be set, the default is 3%.

 

The proposed method: In this paper the method proposed with the majority of students is the same. In fact, if the laptop to use lithium or nickel-hydride batteries, metal, these batteries have a memory effect, nickel-hydride batteries has a metal memory effect is very obvious, but there wills memory effect lithium, but his memory effect smaller than nickel-metal hydride Bale. There is no memory effect on lithium-that only exaggerated and irresponsible to do business in advertising, is totally misleading. Well, since the battery has a memory effect, it should be noted at the load point, as far as possible, then run out of charge, but you do not need to say deliberately use the laptop for stop automatically, so that although there is no harm in using them (because the laptop battery has a charge and discharge protection cons and automatic shutdown in general has not yet reached the standards of protection for the laptop battery discharge), but you do not feel tired? In fact, less than 3% of the burden in this way is very good, memories will certainly effect compared to natural wear, there should be nothing. The second count on the charge to view the author is totally disagree and we have already said, if the Laptop battery nickel metal hydride, lithium, which has a memory effect, if in this way, then the battery life will be shortened.

The preservation method of lithium-ion battery

Posted by admin on October 09, 2009
Digital battery / No Comments

Lithium-ion battery fully charged, after the need to save. In more than six months can be stored at 20 , showing that lithium-ion battery suitable for preservation at low temperature. It has been suggested that the rechargeable battery placed in the refrigerator, the preservation of the Interior, is indeed a good idea. Existence of a lithium-ion car battery power-rejection phenomenon, the prolonged preservation lead to depletion of the battery and destruction of the internal structure of the battery, reducing battery life. Therefore, long-term conservation of the lithium-ion Laptop battery should be every 3 to 6 months up to do after that is charged with a voltage of 3.8 ~ 3.9 V (Li-voltage the ion 3.85V battery kept the best SO) is appropriate.

 

The use of lithium-ion battery, pay attention to three points:

 

1. How to charge the new battery?

 

The use of lithium-ion battery should be noted that a period of time after the battery is placed into hibernation, lower than normal capacity at this time, the use of time has also come to shorten. However, lithium-ion is easily activated, as after 3-5 times the normal charge-discharge cycles the battery can be activated to restore normal capacity. As the characteristics of lithium, its decision is almost no memory effect. The lithium Dell Inspiron 700m battery so that the new user during the activation process does not require methods and special equipment. Not only is the theory that, from a practical standpoint, from the start on using the standard method of charging that “activation” is the best approach.

 

For lithium-ion battery is “activation” issue, many say, is the cooldown should be longer than 12 hours, three times in order to activate the battery. This “The first three load over 12 hours to charge” was obviously the nickel battery (such as nickel-cadmium and nickel metal hydride) inherited from the argument. Therefore, this argument can be said that the beginning a miscommunication. Lithium battery-power ion and nickel battery charge and discharge characteristics are very different, all the official languages of serious emphasized that technical information and charge-off drains batteries Lithium, in particular liquid lithium-ion battery causing great damage. According to the standard load and therefore the best time and the standard method of pricing, in particular, do not make more than 12 hours of super-long charge. In Furthermore, the lithium-ion battery or the charger automatically stops when the hp F4809A battery is fully charged, there is no electricity nickel charger for 10 hours the so-called “trickle” charge. In d ‘ other words, if your lithium-ion batteries power in their entirety on the white horse is also sufficient. But we can not guarantee that the battery and the circuit characteristics of discharge protection and will never change and quality of safety device, so the battery will be a long time at the edge of danger. This is another reason to oppose the charge long.

 

On some machines, charging more for some time, if they do not remove the charger, this time not only to stop charging system will start to discharge – charge cycle. Perhaps the makers of this approach have its own purpose, it is clear that in terms of battery life is a drawback. At the same time, charging time would take some time, often at night, and where the grid at night in many places, over voltage, but also volatile. As already said, the lithium-ion sony VGP-BPS2 battery is very valuable, and more than nickel in the electric charge and discharge aspects of fluctuations in the resistance is much less, if this brings additional risk.

 

In addition, another aspect can not be overlooked is the lithium-ion battery is not appropriate for excessive discharge, excessive discharge of the battery is also very unfavorable. This leads to the following questions.

 

2. When to start charging in normal use?

 

As the number of charging and discharging is limited, must be used as possible, recharge the electric battery. However, on the lithium-battery ion cycle data table discharge test is as follows:

 

Cycle (lifetime 10% DOD) :> 1000 times

 

Cycle (lifetime 100% DOD) :> 200 times DOD is the depth of discharge whose English acronym. Can be seen from the table in May of depth charge and discharge times, 10% DOD cycle life when the DOD of 100% for much longer. Of course, if the equivalent of actual costs to the total capacity on 10% * 1000 = 100100 * 200% = 200, one full charge and discharge, or better than some, in normal circumstances, you should be provided in accordance with the principle remaining toshiba PA3399U-1BAS battery with sufficient capacity, then run out of charge, but if the first two days, can not be expected to persist throughout the day, when they should commit on the one-time charge, of course, if you’re willing to carry a charger at the office is another question.

 

The need to charge in order to cope with future communications provided Occupied lead to an important event, even if a lot of battery power over time, and then just go forward, because that there is no real loss “1″ sub-charge cycle life, which is “0.x” times only, and that x is often very low.

 

Short on battery and then filling the rest of this principle is not extreme. And long as charging a widespread view that “as far as possible from the machine run out of battery, it is preferable to use automatic shutdown.” It’s really just practice for nickel, the goal is to avoid the memory effect occurs, unfortunately, it also spreads on the lithium-ion apple A1079 battery that. It was because the machine is too low battery warning appears; still does not charge to continue using the example has been used in automatic shutdown. The results of this case, the machine later in the pricing and first there was no response, had to review services to clients. In fact, c It is because of the power

 

Pool due to excessive tension electrical discharges cause is too low, so we do not have the normal rate and the boot and conditions.

 

3. The correct way for lithium batteries

 

To sum up, on the lithium-ion battery in use charging and discharging, the most important tips are:

 

(1), in accordance with the standards and procedures, charging time, even the first three have to do (2) when there is low power consumption machine when prompted, he should try to start loading soon (3) lithium batteries do not need to activate the particular mode in the machine in lithium batteries normal use is naturally activated. If you insist on spreading the use of “three previous 2-hour long activation charge” approach, in fact, there will be no effect.

 

Therefore, all 12 hours long pursuit of the charge and the lithium-ion BATCL50L battery used in the practice of automatic shutdown, are wrong.
