Once charging is complete, always remember to remove the plug. This will help in avoiding any laptop battery degradation that may occur due to something that\u2019s known as \u2018battery overcharge\u2019.<\/p>\n<h3>Always Switch To Power Saver Mode When On Notebook Batteries<\/h3>\n<p>Windows Laptop offer three types of Power Plans to its users; High Performance, Balanced and Power Saver mode.<\/p>\n<p>As the names indicate, each plan is optimized for different reasons. While the laptop is plugged in and charging, you can always use the High Performance mode without worrying about draining your battery life. But as soon as you\u2019re done charging the laptop, pull the plug and switch to the Power Saver mode.<\/p>\n<p>Switching to Power Saver mode is imperative if you want to prolong your laptop\u2019s battery life. As soon as you switch from a High Performance mode to Power Saver, you will instantly feel the difference. The whole system \u2018dumbs\u2019 down, the screen goes dimmer, and the response time slows down. Resultantly, you will always get a much better uptime on Power Saver mode.<\/p>\n<p>What the Power Saver mode actually does is lower down the power it gives to your laptop\u2019s peripherals including the USB drive, CD drive, network card, graphic card and Hard Drive to name a few.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Toshiba pa3399u-2brs extended life battery\" href=\"http:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/toshiba\/pa3399u-2brs-battery.htm\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"479\" height=\"105\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-478\" alt=\"toshiba-pa3399u-2brs-laptop-battery\" src=\"https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/toshiba-pa3399u-2brs-laptop-battery.jpeg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/toshiba-pa3399u-2brs-laptop-battery.jpeg 479w, https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/toshiba-pa3399u-2brs-laptop-battery-300x65.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/toshiba-pa3399u-2brs-laptop-battery-150x32.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 479px) 100vw, 479px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Generally, the three Power Plans are for the following purposes:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; High Performance Mode: For the best performance. Consumes the maximum power.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Balanced Mode: For a balanced performance and notebook battery timing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Power Saver Mode: For maximum battery life. System speed and responsiveness is affected for better overall battery timing.<\/p>\n<h3>Say Goodbye To Secondary Devices (CD ROM, Webcams, DVD)<\/h3>\n<p>Nowadays, we rarely get to use our CD and DVD drives. Pretty much everything that we used to get using these drives is now available for download from the Internet or can be copied through a USB drive. Even a Windows Installation can now be done using a 4 GB bootable flash drive.<\/p>\n<p>Removing the DVD (or CD) drive from you laptop can help you reduce the power consumption of your laptop and get you a better battery life. Similarly, while you\u2019re on power saving mode, staying away from using USB drives and Webcams will help you make the most out your battery.<\/p>\n<h3>Avoid using Wi-Fi and Bluetooth For Better Laptop Battery Performance<\/h3>\n<p>Both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth use a considerable amount of power, so it\u2019s always a good idea to manually switch them off temporarily at times when you need your\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.battaussie.com\/toshiba\/satellite-a205-battery.htm\">Toshiba satellite a205 laptop battery<\/a> life to go long. All modern laptops have a keyboard shortcut key that allows for instant on\/off for both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth services.<\/p>\n<h3>Use An Internal Graphics Card<\/h3>\n<p>Laptops nowadays come with two Graphic cards; internal and external. This is usually the case with gaming configured laptops, where a solid graphics card is needed to run graphics intensive video games. Same is the case with other graphics intensive programs like video editing applications. Such laptops have an internal video card, which allows users to basically switch between the external and internal cards. All games are therefore run on the external card while normal widow\u2019s tasks and operations are run on the internal card.<\/p>\n<p>Your Toshiba pa3635u-1bam battery life is improved considerably when you switch to the internal graphic card.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Technology has improved many folds with laptops getting faster, smaller and more efficient, laptops are improving in performance and battery power, which ultimately means more battery power consumption.
