laptop batteries maintenance notes

One: notebook computers do not need to charge-discharge 
three times Unless you buy a notebook computer is more than one year of product inventory, or need not do so, as the current batteries in the battery when the factory has been activated, and the batteries in the package into a notebook battery, after a time equivalent to start the test, so you get the hands of batteries, already have been activated, and again three charge-discharge process was unnecessary to increase battery depletion.

Second: the first time do not need to charge enough to charge 12 hours
This early who do not have the battery control circuit of nickel-hydrogen batteries model is applicable, but now with the wisdom of charge and discharge control circuit for the notebook battery is a joke, when the notebook computer battery is full, the charge current will be automatically cut off, even if you continue to charge 120 hours, state and there will not be changed, generally speaking, even the slowest machine charge, six hours completely filled, the remaining “charge” is just a waste of their time. It is time to get new machines should be??first rechargeable battery.

Three: the need for regular battery calibration
Strong memory effect for nickel-hydrogen batteries, which is an essential task, but for Li-ion battery, this cycle does not need to be too frequent, lithium batteries does not completely eliminate the memory effect, but has been greatly reduced memory effect, if you use the battery very frequently, then you should discharge the battery to the relatively low (about 10 ~ 15%) rechargeable, but even if the discharge machines are not open (0 ~ 1%), belong to the lithium batteries have greater depth of injury discharge, as a general rule every two months to do this kind of operation once it. If you seldom use batteries, so long as every 3 months to conduct a this kind of operation it.

Four: to carry out the battery calibration
The so-called correction, when the actual capacity of the battery and control circuit capacity not the same record, the depth of a battery charge and discharge operation, so that control circuit record so close to the actual situation of the battery, this is a true performance of the battery capacity operation rather than to enhance the capacity of the key factors here is the actual capacity of the battery, if the actual capacity of the battery control circuit than the capacity to record high, correction can increase the capacity of the battery looks, if the battery’s actual capacity than the control circuit capacity to a record low, the correction will reduce the capacity of the battery looks, please remember that correction is to make the real capacity of the battery is shown by the battery and control circuitry to eliminate the deviation between, as demonstrated capacity will increase or decrease, This is the status of the battery itself, rather than your correction determined. Correction is likely because the battery discharge when the depth of injury, but a substantial reduction in capacity.
