How to save your Laptop batteries!!

Did u buy a new laptop and in a year or so your battery died?? Does that sound familiar. So basically in this blog i'll tell you how to save your laptop battery. This are some of the things you can do to extend your battery life. NOTE: Your battery will eventually die, you cant do nothing about it. But you can extend your battery life by doing following things:

1) When you plug your computer using your power supply, take out your battery. If you want to charge your battery only then keep your battery inside, or else take it out, what happens is that when you leave your battery inside and is fully charged the current has to go through your battery in order for your computer to work, so the computer takes a bit of power from your battery and keeps on charging it. This makes the battery life die more faster.

2) Use the battery only when needed. If you have a outlet where you can plug your computer, take out your battery and use the power supply! This not only saves your battery but it also keeps your computer cool. When you have a battery inside, laptop gets much hotter.

3) When you are using your laptop on the battery mode make sure you use the laptop on that mode until your battery fully discharges, and then charge it. Do not charge the battery when it's half done!

4)Never keep a full battery for more then a week. Use it at least once, always keep your battery discharged, if your not going to use it. If you are going on a train or bus and you need battery, charge it right before you go.

5)Keep the contact between your battery and laptop clean!
