How to use a good laptop battery for your laptop

How to use a good laptop battery
How to make good use of laptop batteries, how to extend their use of time Laptop Battery and the use of life and so on, is undoubtedly the troubled minds of the majority of notebook users, a problem, the use of laptop battery There are many methods and techniques, which requires us to use more in peacetime learning and application.
(A) rapid access to hibernation temporarily using a laptop computer, in order to conserve battery power, we can set the power management program, allowing the system to enter sleep mode after a period of time, but this is a shorter or longer will have to wait a few minutes, Is there a way to make laptop computer system immediately enter hibernation state? to make notebook computer system to enter sleep state of a fast and easy way is to directly close the display. Press the display would require little effort, you can make notebook computers into sleep mode immediately and effectively conserve battery power. When you need to re-used time, as long as  toshiba pa3331u-1brs battery  the opening screen, the system will automatically return to pre-operational state.
(B) the screen-saving mode in notebook computers TFT screen is the largest power components, in order to reduce its use of the battery when the power consumption, notebook manufacturers have devised ingenious schemes, but in general are based on the lower screen brightness, and even is off-screen method. In some notebook computer's power management settings you can customize the brightness of the screen, most of notebook computers by a specific shortcut keys adjust screen brightness, generally 6 to 8-level brightness  toshiba a100 series battery adjustment.
(C) to set energy-saving desktop using alternating current, most energy-saving features for notebook computers may not be very great importance, but need to use battery-powered notebook computers, the use of energy-saving features should be taken seriously a. How to design computer hardware more energy-efficient, this is not a user problem to be solved. The user can do is set up on the computer the effective use of energy-saving option. Energy-saving settings require the user to adjust two: First, the computer's BIOS setup program on the energy-saving mode in the settings; most important thing is there are many energy-saving in the operating system settings  toshiba pa3534u-1bas battery and operations. In the practical implementation of computer systems, Windows systems should take precedence over energy-saving settings in the CMOS settings.
1. BIOS settings in the energy-saving settings in the CMOS, has a large "Power Savings", which can choose to "Maximum Battery Life" and "Maximum Performance" and other options. "Maximum Battery Life" is the default power saving mode setting. Notebook computer power saving mode in several states, such as the Idle Mode Idle Mode, Standby Mode standby (wait) mode, Suspend Mode suspension (sleep) mode. Notebook computers, these settings have been able to regulate power consumption, mainly in the computer into energy-saving state, the timely closure of some without the use of the system equipment. If the wait state, turn off the screen and hard drive; into hibernation, apart from a close monitor and hard drive, but also the contents of memory can be saved to the hard disk, the basic maintenance of the entire computer system shut down, once activated, or restart the computer, desktop will be accurately restored to pre-hibernation state. The energy-saving settings in the CMOS, mainly set by the Idle Mode to enter Standby Mode to Standby Timeout time, set to enter Suspend Mode from Standby Mode to Suspend Timeout time. Phoenix BIOS notebooks are most common. Different hp pavilion dv8000 battery energy-saving BIOS settings may be somewhat different, it should carefully read the screen prompts.
2. Windows in the energy-saving settings for the average user, in the Windows system to operate a better understanding of energy management can be simpler. Windows Help file, in the "management of hardware and software" entries, there are two notebook computers with energy-saving elements relating to: "Managing energy consumption" and "use of portable machine" in the "management laptop on the power." Energy-saving settings during Windows, should read the contents. In the Windows "Control Panel", click "power management", you can open the "Power Management Properties" dialog box. In the "Power Management Properties" dialog box, should be "power scheme" is set to "Portable / Laptop" and reasonable arrangement "system waiting for", "close the Monitors", "Turn off hard disks" and other options for . Different computer can control the option to have some differences, the new factory and the latest computer software will be more workable options, detailed settings should be based on the computer's own features and Windows Help files to carry out. In addition, if your laptop built-in  hp pavilion dv8000 battery infrared port, not the time to ban it, you can also extend laptop battery life.
(D) The alarm settings are set battery alarm in time to give prompt the user to save the information. Way is to click on Open "Control Panel", double-click "Power" option, point "alarm" menu bar, "low-battery alarm" column, Windows 98 default is 10%, "a serious shortage of the battery alarm" column, Windows 98 default is 3 %, which may make the appropriate modifications as needed. Click both the [alarm response] button, the "voice alert" and "displays the message" are selected, "the power level" may from time to select. Alarm limits so that when the  hp pavilion ze5000 battery is used, it will pop up a warning window, and the alarm buzzer sounds to alert the user to save information on a timely manner. Finally click [OK] button to exit the power management settings.
(E) open the energy-saving function in the "extended laptop battery life technology" section, we have introduced energy-saving feature is the use of a CPU  hp pavilion dv4 battery  technology, which allows play to make the performance of laptop battery life between the time to reach its the best balance. Most new models of notebook computers both in the BIOS of the CPU energy-saving technology have given the support, by default is turned on, if not open as long as the enter the BIOS will support the option to open it OK. The use of third-party software to monitor battery condition apart from Windows built-in power management features, there are many utilities available to monitor the battery condition. For example, PowerCenter is a power monitoring tool available for free download . Only 800KB, is designed for notebook computer services software.
In addition to the amount of PowerCenter shows the percentage of battery, but also to show the actual time and hours of time can be used. PowerCenter total of three kinds of display.
(1) FullDisplay: In the open window displays detailed  Toshiba PA3331U-1BRS battery information, including the use of battery or AC power, the battery percentage and the remaining time available.
(2) CompactDisplay: in use is always at the top of the window display.
(3) MinimizeDisplay: make PowerCenter reduced to the Windows task bar, display the information is relatively simple. PowerCenter is also attached to a control center, can be made up to six kinds of warning. When the battery? Down to a certain level, a timely warning to the user, save the file being processed. In order not to waste electricity and CPU resources, PowerCenter automatically detect the battery status changes.
(Vii) intentionally run out of battery run out of battery on a regular basis in order to ensure a full charge. If you need to completely run out of  hp pavilion dv2000 battery power in the specific practice is: In the Power Management dialog box, select Battery Drain this particular power mode, all of its 3 Running on Batteries options are set to Never, this notebook computer on the will continue to run. Hp pavilion zd7000 battery the mode, and then enter the Alarms tab to lift the Low  sony vgp-bps3 battery and Critical Battery Warning check box is a check mark (so, when the battery power is low, the machine will not enter the suspended state). Next, let the computer run the CPU-time tasks, such as the computer automatically run a number of computational complexity of the 3D demo program, so soon run out of battery power remaining, of course, these disposal not forget to unplug the AC plug.
(8) How to calibrate the battery to the battery to achieve the best performance, certain models of notebook computer provides a hp mini 1000 battery  calibration feature, the first use of batteries can be used to calibrate the battery this feature. Calibration procedures are exhausted  toshiba pa3383u-1brs battery power, and then re-filled with electricity, which would enable Windows battery meter to monitor battery status correctly. Calibrate the battery, follow these steps.
(1) into the power adapter.
(2) re-start the notebook computer, the startup screen appears, press F2 key to enter the BIOS program.
(3) In the BIOS program, select Exit item, and select BatteryAuto-Learning option.
(4) Press Enter key, select BatteryAuto-Learning option (which will appear in front of a "√" number).
(5) Select Exit project SaveandExit option to save your settings and exit the BIOS program.
(6) The system will reboot and start laptop battery calibration
