4 SIMPLE TIPS TO KEEP YOUR LAPTOP BATTERY HEALTHY

KEEP IT COOL

DON’T LEAVE IT FULLY CHARGED

PERFORM SHALLOW DISCHARGES

FULLY DISCHARGE ONCE A MONTH

That’s outdated advice.

The fully discharge advice is for NiCAD and NiMH batteries which haven’t been seen for decades in laptops.

Please update your knowledge base.

There is a reason to do a full discharge but battery life span is not one of them.

Dont keep your charger always pulgged in take it off once your battery is fully charged. Try charging you laptop when its idle.

That advice looks outdated.

Long ago when battery management was terrible you would do that. Today we have had laptops plugged in for 5 years and find the battery loss is one to a few percent.

To keep the battery for a long time, it’s easy. Use the laptop on mains power except when you can’t.
