Until new nano lithium technology comes in later in 2009, mobile phone batteries are still notoriously flaky. Just when you need to make an important call the battery indicator tells you the charge is all but extinct. You may have conditioned your battery in line with all of the advice and old wives tales floating around but still have to re-charge yours every day. Short of buying a spare and keeping that charged what can you do?
If you have your PC case off you will see something on the motherboard that looks like a small thick silver coin. That is the battery. There are other types of battery used on newer machines (Ni-Cad, NVRAM) but these much less frequently found and so I won't discuss them further.
There are two things that kill a notebook battery; heat and operating outside its voltage specifications, overcharge or undercharge in plain English. They are easy to avoid if you can identify the sources. Heat has two big group of players internal sources such as the processor graphics card hard disk drive and the internal eddy stock resistance of the battery itself.
Let's look at a typical comparison to prove this point. A normal 9.6 volt cordless drill will weigh around 3-1/2 lbs and costs you $35-$150 a piece, depending on the model and brand you choose. If you opt for a higher voltage tool, a 19.2 volt cordless drill would weigh up to ten lbs and costs anywhere from $120-$300 a piece. If you are looking to get more power and torque from a cordless drill, then it may justify the cost of getting a more expensive version. But if you are merely looking to drive screws in your own home, then it would not be a wise move to waste your hard-earned money on a powerful 19.2 volt cordless drilling. It is much harder to use too, because of the additional weight. Under these circumstances, a lighter version would suit you best.
The weakest aspect of any smart phone would be battery life. You need to know the extent of your Lithium battery stocks Ion or suffer the consequences at the end of the sale. Most manufacturers offer some guidance on this department but only to the point they are most comfortable to share. What they wouldn't share to you is that you should never recharge your phone. You pick up the phone; saw that it is just around 30%. That is OK, leave it as it is. You juice it up fast, the device will not recharge as efficiently once you do it again. You need to drain the battery first from the stock power and then do the recharge.
If the battery in Lithium mines Ontario your computer is a nickel metal hydride or a nickel cadmium then it will experience memory degradation over time. To lessen the effects of this, make sure that you run the battery down to empty every time. Also ensure that you fully recharge the battery every time you recharge it.
You cannot use the phone whilst initially charging. You can use the phone whilst charging even during the initial charge with no damage to the battery.
Third, it is quite important to fully charge the battery every time, also to run the battery to be empty every time. The reason is the battery will lose charge day after day if the battery in your notebook is a nickel metal hydride. Therefore, your battery will dies a certain days later and you need to order a new one. Your work will be affected and money will come out of your pocket. Shortly, you can keep your battery in a good condition for a long time if you do as what have mentioned above.
