Laptop Battery Life and Performance

As easy as it may seem, the batteries are the biggest differentiator between laptops and desktops. Drag a desktop from the wall, and it is shut down, do the same with a notebook, and it could take a day. Or, more realistic, anywhere from 90 minutes to 9 hours.For example,TOSHIBA PA2467U battery,TOSHIBA PA2487 battery,TOSHIBA PA2487UR battery,TOSHIBA PA2506UR battery,TOSHIBA PA2510U battery,TOSHIBA PA2522U battery.

Regardless of the capacity, all new laptop batteries are made from lithium-ion cells and are rechargeable via AC adapter. While some manufacturers make it more difficult than others to remove the battery, most make it easy, they pop and disembarking. This opens up the possibility for mobile business people to a spare battery dead (sold separately). But are you better off, always a battery, a long time as dragged a replacement takes; extra batteries are bulky, and you must shut down your computer, before you them.

In the selection or configuration a notebook, you can be presented with different battery sizes and capacities. We can help you to decide which is right for you.

If you want to use your notebook not at your desk, you'll want a minimum of three hours endurance (with four from five hours are preferred), also in the implementation of a notebook at home or in the Office, chained to a wall outlet is extremely uncomfortable. If you want your laptop in public places (cafes, in the open air, aircraft, etc), a minimum of four and a half hour endurance (preferred with six or more hours).


During battery capacity is the most important factor for the battery life, you can say AOT only from the battery specifications, how long to take a notebook. Some notebooks are energy-efficient than others and also with the same notebook, user that they use a great impact on the battery life on the power settings and what role they may have based. For example, a quad-core gaming notebook can receive less than two hours endurance of high performance battery, while a NetBook with a reduced capacity of the battery can last more than nine hours.

We test the battery life on the laptop by running a custom script that continuously surfs the Web on Wi-Fi notebooks. For more details, see our "how we test".

However AOS it is clear that the more power one battery (usually either in milliamperes or killowatt hour measured), the better. Most providers advertise not the amount of the performance of a battery provides, but the number of cells in the battery. And more cells almost always equal more juice.

While there are batteries with two, four or eight cells, most in three-, six or nine-cell packs come. If a long battery life for you is important, you choose always the largest number of cells available. What you do, don, AOT for a three-cell battery to fix; Notebooks and Netbooks with three-cell batteries in less than three hours of battery life. Add some additional mass of your notebook, standing out at the back and the addition of a few tenths a pound, to the weight of batteries larger than six cells, so-called "extended batteries". However, if you need long endurance, which is extra weight worth.

Many business notebooks offer the possibility of a second battery, the in, when the main battery empty, buy kicks. Secondary batteries typically in the slot for optical drives (replaced the optical drive) slide, or hang down, how to cut a battery slice. In particular, a notebook of less these secondary batteries to the cost and sometimes the weight and discs, can comfortably on your lap. However, they can endurance hours anywhere add 2-6.


In the course of time, tend to lose a typical Notebook battery to its ability to keep a charge. After a year of use, the typical battery has lost 15 percent of the capacity, and it decreases rapidly from there. A handful of new batteries, such as HP, AOS Enviro battery (made by battery manufacturer Boston power), you use oval prismatic cells on their ability to maintain a charge in the course of time to keep. The enviro-batteries, for example, are guaranteed at least three years. During this new type of battery is a rare opportunity, it is definitely better, if available.
