The new battery
A friend bought a laptop in May to have that experience, just buy a power Laptop battery is very low, or even can not start the computer. Because the battery after a long storage period, while the battery has a natural discharge process, has a natural discharge is completed, this does not affect the battery capacity. The first charge, you must continuously charge the battery at 12 hours, and the loop for a full charge and discharge completely three times to wake up a new battery. After this procedure, the battery can be properly used. If a battery after 12 hours or three consecutive times after the charge-discharge cycle still can not charge the battery can not use that part must be replaced. Ordinary rechargeable batteries through a chemical reaction to store the electronic energy, so that its capacity is probably due to temperature, length of time are not used, the burden of the environment and the use of frequencies, are affected. What follows is the best way to optimize the maintenance of the battery to extend battery life. After starting to charge the battery, the better it is fully charged the battery power to use. Currently, some brand name mobile billing mechanism has become very intelligent. Power supply for laptop will automatically discharge the battery power only less than 95% of time will be automatically loaded. So you do not normally worry about when it will automatically use the load. Are you suggesting that every few months to make a deep cycle battery to optimize battery performance? The specific approach is to use batteries, has been using the IBM ThinkPad R40 battery capacity is 0% (when the system will automatically go into hibernation or standby, depending on the different BIOS). And then connected to the AC charger was completed at 100% to date.
Reasonable fixed mode power management
Firstly, the simplest method of power management to start, each operating system is configured with a different mode of power management, the establishment is next to Windows XP as an example (similar to other systems) in the control panel there is a “Power Options” (as shown in Figure 1), open the “Power Options”, a “Power Options Properties” window (as shown Figure 2) in the “Power Schemes” selection box, the “home / office desk”, “Laptop”, “Demo”, “always open”, “Minimal Power Management”, “Max operating battery “and cleaner than the models of the supplier and other projects. When you select a different element of power configuration, the bottom will display different configuration settings of power. In general, laptops using the “Notebook” is more appropriate courses, depending on user needs to adjust the settings. But here, I propose to close the monitor, turn off the hard drive and system standby time can be set to 5 minutes, respectively, 15 and 30 minutes, you can not adjust the system from standby and Hibernate used, because sleep is more than the stand-by power, but the opening did sleep need to occupy a portion of hard drive space.
From subtle to start saving energy, rational use, maintenance, energy-saving laptop Dell Inspiron E1705 battery can also reduce the brightness of the screen on the economies more efficient
Laptop running the process, CPU, memory, hard drives, motherboards, monitors, speakers and CD-ROMs and other equipment will consume some power, but also according to different applications and have a power consumption different. Therefore the notebook to watch DVD or run 3D games, use of time were significantly higher than editing documents, surfing the Internet and a brief reason why. Therefore, we can start from here to start saving as editing a document without a very good performance, they can properly reduce the operating frequency of CPU, but not when you see the film can be suitably reduce the brightness of the screen and off peripherals such as CD-ROM, while over time without the use of a wireless network may come to power by turning off the map without thread.
Notebook batteries currently used in most lithium batteries, in theory, there is no memory effect, but to be able to better use, but also more energy savings, the process use a laptop if you use the environment can provide a stable power supply, then as far as possible the power supply, power supply, to avoid the battery, the discharge power consumption in the process.
Notebook power consumption of various equipment to sort descending May be simple, the display – CD-ROM – hard drive – CPU – other devices. Wholly the brightness of the LCD screen placed behind the lamp can not imagine the level of lamp brightness caused by the consumption of energy is absolutely different. Therefore, if the extent permitted in the visual as much as possible to reduce the screen brightness can save significant power, but also use a dark background is more than the gaudy light output. But despite the low light over the bottom and the black lamp, or are in working order, never cut the power, and therefore recommends that everyone will leave the computer when the computer screen closed, the LCD backlight off if the time is long out of hibernation to make use of functionality or simply closed, after all, there is a LCD backlight lamp life, long-term use may cause aging.
External equipment, electricity to large energy savings strategy
General will be many mobile devices can be used, but these devices can you spend a lot of HSTNN-LB31 battery energy, such as devices connected to the laptop, even if the laptop does not work use electricity, so when we don ‘ have no need to use these things the best time to put down the laptop or in the BIOS and Device Manager, which will disable it. There are mouse most commonly used is very powerful because many of my friends do not feel comfortable with a touch screen laptop, the mouse does not know that it is a thirst for power, particularly the optical mouse, which I encourage the wider use of laptop users since the laptops with the touchpad. But if you need to use an external mouse, then stop the touchpad of the laptop, because when you use an external mouse at the same time, touchpad also work in power.
Notebook Cooling also affects the power
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. When the temperature is too high, the laptop will start-up cooling fan to help cooling, due to the use of laptops is temperature controlled fan, and only when the sony VGP-BPS5A battery temperature reaches a certain program will start, so we can assist Notebook Cooling to control the temperature of a good laptop, you can reduce the startup time temperature controlled fan, which also had more power.
