The laptop battery is the one that makes a laptop portable. Sure you can bring the AC adaptor but is an AC outlet always available? This is the reason why it is important to take care of the laptop\u2019s battery and prolong its lifespan as much as possible.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/toshiba\/pa3399u-2bas-battery.htm\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1208\" src=\"https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/toshiba-pa3399u-2bas-battery.png\" alt=\"toshiba-pa3399u-2bas-battery\" width=\"479\" height=\"297\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/toshiba-pa3399u-2bas-battery.png 479w, https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/toshiba-pa3399u-2bas-battery-300x186.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 479px) 100vw, 479px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nAs crazy as it sound but this tip is the most important and is most applicable at home. Just imagine, sitting at your room, planning to visit facebook or chat with your friends, your laptop\u2019s juice is running low, you plugged in the power cord, you stayed there for three hours or worse, forgot to remove the cord. UH-OH, pretty soon you\u2019ll notice that 3-hour 100%-charge battery capacity goes down to, let\u2019s just say, not acceptable ranges.<\/p>\n<p>Why is this so? First reason is high temperature. Try touching the laptop\u2019s base after long usage, HOT isn\u2019t it. Now, look at the location of the battery, got the big picture? High temperature or heat quickly deteriorates the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/how-to-conserve-dell-latitude-e5410-laptop-battery-power.htm\">lifespan of the battery<\/a>. The heat produced by the main unit and the electric power flowing into the battery will make the battery scream for mercy if only it can.<\/p>\n<p>Still not convinced? A good analogy will be a mobile phone. Most mobile phones uses Li-ion <a href=\"http:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/toshiba\/pa3534u-1brs-battery.htm\">Toshiba pa3534u-1brs batteries<\/a>\u00a0and as instructed or advised on the user\u2019s manual to charge only when the battery is low due to frequent charging may damage or weaken the batteries life span.<\/p>\n<p>Notice that warning message saying to plug in the power cord because the power remaining on the battery is only 5 or 10%, guess what, don\u2019t ignore it. Not only because you might lose your work but it is actually advisable for Li-ion batteries to be charged at these level rather than to be charged from a fully drained state. Also remember to charge it to 100%. Not 99, 95, but 100.<\/p>\n<p>Just remember, if your laptop\u00a0is important to you and your work, the laptop battery is too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every laptop users want to use their notebook batteries for as long as possible and in a way that yields greatest backup time.\u00a0No matter the brand (if it is a Dell laptop, or a Toshiba\u00a0battery, etc&#8230;) a spare laptop battery pack is quite expensive &#8211; which is the more reason why it is important to [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,3,4],"tags":[643,641,642],"class_list":["post-1207","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-battery-knowledge-base","category-how-to","category-laptop-batteries-tips","tag-laptop-battery-lifespan","tag-toshiba-pa3399u-2bas-battery","tag-toshiba-pa3534u-1brs-battery"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1207","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1207"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1207\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1209,"href":"https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1207\/revisions\/1209"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1207"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1207"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1207"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
