I Love Laptop, Love Laptop’s Battery
Modern technology has made laptop accessible to most people. And one of the prominent features that make laptop different from desktop is that it runs well with the battery. This proves the greatest significance of birth of laptop – Allow people to take it everywhere you go.
Speaking of laptop’s battery, what are the most important parameters should be take into consideration when valuing and choosing a best battery for your laptop?
Some people think the number of pin is of maximum importance. Of course, this parameter is the most visual one to customers. And it is not quite wrong to say that battery with more pins lasts longer that of fewer pins. Other people may focus on the battery’s “mAh”-the unit of the capacity of battery. Most people think that larger mAh has longer life then smaller one.
However, the real mater to decide the battery capacity should be the "Wh". Of course, there is a close relationship between "Wh" and "mAh". The formula is Wh / V *1000 = mAh.
From the above formula we can learn that when choosing a laptop’s battery the most important parameter should be the "Wh" as well as the voltage but not "mAh". For example, the same 4800mAh lithium-ion battery has different life span when working with 10.8V or 11.1V. And this difference stems from its distinct "Wh". Use the above formula and we can get the following equation:
4800 /1000 *10.8 = 51.84 (Wh) 4800/1000*11.1 = 53.28 (Wh)
It can be clearly seen that 4800mAh 11.1V Li-ion battery owns an advantage on longer life.
If selecting a battery is an important work, then how to use and protect it is also what you must pay enough attention to. When you get a new laptop, you do not need to charge the new lithium-ion battery for 12 hours as people did that for the early nickel-metal hydride batteries
be sufficient 12-hour. But what to note is that the new lithium-ion battery needs activating, that is to say, you need to completely charge it before using it and repeat this 2-3 times.
Some friends like to use a laptop without battery to make it last longer. In this way, the battery’s life will not extend as expected but affect the life span. The reason lines in the fact that when the lithium-ion battery keeps in comparative static state for long time (that is, without electricity or less battery power), it takes only about 6 months to completely lose energy-storing function. But if you insist on taking out the battery to use, then you’d better charge it to a maximum of 90% of the electricity, and place it in a cool place to save after wrapped in plastic.
Apart from the above, you should avoid using lithium batteries in high-temperature or extremely low-temperature environment. According to the expert, high-temperature state will accelerate the aging process of lithium batteries while low temperature will reduce the activity of lithium batteries and then to reduce battery life. The best you can do protect your battery is to activate it regularly. That is to fully charge and discharged it from time to time so that the maximum capacity of lithium batteries can resume. This is not a tough task: turn off all power, let notebook itself slowly discharge until they is no electricity, and then, then fully charge it. Repeat this process for two or three times and you can use it with peace of mind.
I do wish the above suggestions or tip will be a little of use to laptop lovers. With them in mind, choosing and maintain a laptop battery is no trouble as it used to be. If you want to have more choices, you can have a look at Chinazrh’s various kinds of laptop batteries. What we will guarantee is not only the quality of the produce but also the considerate and thoughtful service.
