Battery Guide - how to charge laptop battery



1: Recharge your laptop's battery whether the battery is fully drained or not. Especially if your laptop is using a li-ion battery, it makes no difference.

2: Heat is your battery’s worst enemy. Avoid charging your battery in hot places such as your car during the daytime.

3: A full discharge puts more strain on your battery than several partial discharges. You do not need to worry about battery memory with Li-Ion batteries. Get into the habit of recharging the battery when it reaches 10-20%.

4: If you will be on AC power for an extended period of time, you can prolong your battery’s lifespan by removing it and putting it into prolonged storage. Allow a stored battery to warm to room temperature completely before using or recharging it.

5: Calibrate your battery’s fuel gauge by doing a full discharge every 30 cycles. Run the battery to the cut-off point in your notebook to keep the battery’s fuel gauge accurate.

6: It doesn’t take longer to recharge the battery if you use the laptop while recharging.

7: Never discharge your battery to 0% – as this can render your battery useless. By short, I mean that you connect the two terminals (positive and negative) directly so that the battery simply drains. This is a very bad, stupid thing to do. It can cause a fire. Don't do it.
