1. Laptop Battery Life Extending Tips

Switch off your laptop screen to save power when your laptop is idle(shortcut key: Fn + F3). You can also set the laptop power plan to turn off the display quickly when your laptop is idle.

Adjust the screen brightness – most laptops require holding down the function key and using the brightness keys, and turning it down as far as you can (while still visible) is a good idea.

Turn off the IR, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi and other devices when not in use. Each of these devices consumes power just by being enabled, and if you aren’t using them, you may as well disable them to save a little bit of battery.

  

2. Laptop Battery Using Tips

Full initial charge and discharge. A new laptop computer or battery should always be charged for 24-hours in its first use. After being fully charged we suggest letting the battery fully discharge and fully recharge. Doing this at least twice to maximize the performance of the battery.

Make sure your battery do not drain under 3% in daily use. If your laptop battery‘s life has gotten shorter over time, you should try to calibrate your battery. Calibration process basically involves first turning off your screensaver and other power management settings that put the computer to sleep. Then fully charge the laptop before letting it run all the way down until the computer shuts off automatically. Once the battery has fully drained, you can charge it back up again and restore your screensaver and power management settings. If calibration doesn’t help, it’s time to purchase another battery. We recommend finding discounts at batteriesaussie.com and canadabatt.com. Just make sure you pick up the right one for your laptop model.

The charging cycle of lithium battery is about 500 – 800 times. When your laptop spends most of its time plugged into AC power, it’s better to remover the battery out of the laptop. It can not only reduce heat in the laptop, but also increase the durability of the battery. Since the battery is being charged once the laptop in pluged in, it is most possible to demage the battery if you plug and unplug the laptop frequently withe battery inside.

Properly store your notebook battery if you will not be using it for an extended period of time (one month or longer) in a cool, dry and clean place after fully charging the laptop battery. Recharge the battery to 50% every month.

Customer reviews:

I'm quite satisfied with this battery. The price is much cheaper than Acer original, the battery arrive in 3 days and 80% of the battery was charged. my laptop was fun again in no time.

Battery was Delivered quickly; works just fine. It looks exactly like the original and fits just as well on the laptop.

There is not much to express. Battery arrived quickly, fit neatly in to the laptop and I have had no problems with it. Battery performs as advertised.

I acquired this battery for my laptop and received it from batteriesaussie.com as promised. They can fit and works much like new, maybe better. It actually holds electric power charge over the initial battery. The charge lasts around 2 hours. We are very pleased with this purchase.

Easy replacement! I simply determined the make and model and ordered it. I felt better about replacing my laptop while using specific battery made for it rather than using a universal model. While that probably doesn't matter, it's just my preference. Satisfied customer.
