Make
Battery Last Longer
Many
people buy laptops so that they can have a computer to use while they are on
the move. There are all types of chargers available to help you out in this
endeavor but there are also times when you are unable to use any type of power
source to make use of these chargers. That is when the laptop really depends on
the life and longevity of the batter.
When
you have to use you laptop on the go however, you might not be about to use a
car charger in some situations. This is when you need to learn how to properly
conserve your laptops battery while you are using the computer. The most
power-hungry part which takes probably the most power from your laptop battery
is the screen. Screen takes huge power to keep the display bright. You can save
huge battery power by lowering the brightness.
The
second thing that you can do even right now is to make sure that the backlight
on the laptop is on the lowest setting possible. The backlight really only
helps when you are fighting the glare of a powerful light such as the sun.
Other than that it can stay on the lowest setting and not affect what you are
doing on the laptop.
Most
laptops comes with built in Wi-Fi capabilities. Wi-Fi drains battery power in
two ways. First if it is connected, it takes batter power to function or
secondly, if it is not connected, it continues to look for networks which also
takes much batter power. If you are away from Wi-Fi zone and cannot use it, you
can turn off Wi-Fi.
Another
thing you can do is limit the amount of programs that start up when you turn
your computer. This will make more efficient use of the processor. If you have
too many programs running then you will waste processing time on programs that
you are not even using. This will also increase the time that the processor is
at full throttle. This is when the processor drains the maximum amount of
energy it can drain.
