1) What is a ‘’Full cycle’’?
A cycle is when the total battery power is less then 50% before it recharged. The battery electronics monitor the status of the cells during use, and not cycling the battery at least once a week may cause the electronics to get false recordings.
2)How Long Will My Battery Last?
The life of a rechargeable battery operating under normal conditions is generally between 500 to 600 charge-discharge cycles. This translates into one and a half to two years of battery life for the average user. As your rechargeable battery begins to die, you will notice a decline in the run time of the battery.
3)Why is my battery not charging?
Now batteries are shipped only 30% to 40% charged condition and must be charged full before use. We generally recommend an overnight charge (approximately twelve hours). Rechargeable batteries should be cycled – fully charged and then fully discharged 2 to 4 times initially to allow them to reach their full capacity.
(Note: It is perfectly normal for a battery to become warm to the touch during charging and discharging).
4)How Does Power Management Works?
Battery power is automatically conserved each time an AC power sources is used to run the computer. The batteries life expectancy is largely determined by the number of charges it received, so use an AC power source to run the computer if one is available.
Reasons to use Power Management:
1) Prolongs battery life for portable and embedded systems.
2) Reduces cooling requirements.
4) Reduces operating costs for energy and cooling.
5) Lower power consumption also means lower heat dissipation, which increases system stability, and less energy use, which saves money and reduces the impact on the environment.
To maximize power savings, The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends setting computers to enter hibernate mode after 30 to 60 minutes of inactivity. To save even more, set monitors to enter sleep mode after 5 to 20 minutes of inactivity. The lower the setting, the more energy you save.
5)WHY won’t new battery charge to 100%?
Sometimes your devices charger will stop charging a new battery before it is fully charged. If this happens, simply remove the battery from your device and then re-insert it. The charge cycle should start again. This may happen several times during your first battery charge. Don’t worry; it’s perfectly normal.
6)How to remedy the battery that has gone wrong?
If the battery has already had problem like the run time obviously being shortened and serious memory effect, how can we remedy it? Try below methods:
Firstly, enter into BIOS and shut the electrical power manager. Because many laptops have electricity saving mode, over-low voltage may lead to laptop shutting down automatically. Then turn on the laptop again. Press PAUSE before getting into WINDOWS. Let it stay in WINDOWS menu until electric power getting used-up which will case the laptop to shut down. Repeat this process three times before recharging it. The above method is usually very effective. If your battery does not change even with above method, then there is nothing can be done.
7)Why there is no need for us to remove the battery when we use external electrical power?
There is chip on the main board to prevent overcharge. When it has been charge up to 100%, charging control chip (PET) will stop the charging. Don’t worry about any damage to the battery.
8)How to store battery when it is not in use for a long time? It should be fully charged or discharged?
Storing the batteries at full discharge for long period of time will have the battery cells lose their activity; even have the control circuit protection self-closed which resulted in its inability to be re-used. Storing the batteries at full charge will have battery safety jeopardized. The best way to store the batteries is to keep the batteries at cool and dry places at optimal temperature of about 20 degrees with only about 50% capacity remained. Off course, getting the battery out every month for use is the best way to keep the battery at excellent storage state and battery power free from flowing away completely which damage the battery.
9)How shall we prolong the laptop battery run-time?
A: Turn down the screen brightness of your laptop.
B: Make good use of the stand-by, dormancy etc. If it not in use for a long time, stand-by or dormancy no only saves electric power but also prolongs laptop life.
C: when battery is in use, try to shut down wireless, Bluetooth and infrared port. In the meantime, try to remove the unnecessary external devices and avoid turning on large 3D programs and games so as to cut down on unnecessary power consumption.
10)How can you use your new battery?
Your new battery must be completely charged and discharged before use. The long period of transition from factory to customers during which the idleness of battery may passivate its electrode material. So upon initial use the battery may require three complete charge/discharge cycles in order to avoid pasivation and activate the battery’s performance and maximize its capacity. Meanwhile, as there is the data transmission agreement port between laptop battery and laptop, it takes 2-3 charge and discharge cycles before the battery’s actual capacity percentage is in sync with the percentage displayed by laptop. Cycling approach: Put the battery into laptop and charge/ discharge it until the laptop shutting down. Then charge the battery again. Charge time must exceed 12 hours. Repeat three times.
11)Do you need to remove the battery when you use external power?
It is actually dependant on whether you need to use the external power for charging your battery. Battery’s charge cycles have a direct relationship with its life. Usually there are only 500 cycles of discharge and charge for the battery. Every time, we charge the battery, the number of chargeable cycles is reduced by one. However, currently a lot of notebook manufactures have taken the battery’s vulnerability into consideration by improving the battery when external power is in place for long time because high temperature is always not good for battery. Laptop can release a certain amout of heat when in operation, thus will cause damage to battery.
12)Shall we fully use up the power of battery before recharging it?
For people who use Li-Ion batteries, the biggest merit is nearly no memory effect. It is thus not necessary to wait until power is completely used up before recharging. As for NI-MH and NI-CD batteries, it is better to recharge when no power is left, especially for NI-CD batteries whose memory effect is very obvious. Therefore, we suggest for all users, especially for laptop users, especially for laptop users, to preodically use up the battery power before recharging the battery.
13)Why does a rechargeable batteries life get short when charge cycles get less?
All rechargeable batteries are made with chemical materials. The chemistry changes to electric power. Simply speaking, the reaction is reversible. It can be charged and discharged. But these chemical materials would not keep its chemical nature forever. Along with charge and discharge, the batteries chemical material reaction will be aging and deteriorating which lead to decline of workable capacity. Then the using time is also declined gradually. Chemical material will completely deteriorate and the battery can’t be used when charge and discharge cycles are up to a certain extent.
14)Our batteries have no power soon after it is fully charged?
Usually, threr are two reasons as follows:
A: battery’s life is to the end (we have to change another battery if it true.) Battery is an expendable product Lithium-Ion battery has about 500 charge/ discharge cycles. Its performance will get worse and worse after charge/discharge cycles exceed 500. Then we have to change battery.
B: the battery is not used properly. 1, battery is placed under high temperature.
2, metal end of battery group is short circuited after removing the battery.
3, AC to DC adapter’s quality is not good, thus unable to supply stable voltage and made the power manager in confusion.
15)Why can’t the battery be charged? How to solve this problem?
1.Reason:
a.The battery has no voltage.
b.There is problem with charge, as it has no output electric current.
c.Low charging efficiency due to external cause.
2.Solutions:
a.Test whether the charger has voltage and output electric current or not.
b.Check if the charger is well contacted with battery.
c.Activate the battery with voltage and current 1.5 times higher then the highest ones of battery. (Use this method only when the battery can’t be charged )
16)Now battery isn’t charging?
Now batteries are shipped in a discharged condition and must be charged before use. We generally recommend an overnight charge (approximately twelve hours). Rechargeable batteries should be cycled- fully charged and then fully discharged 2 to 4 times initially to allow them to reach their full capacity. (Note:- It is perfectly normal for a battery to become warm to the touch during charging and discharging)
17)Now batteries are hard for your device to charge?
They have never been fully charged and are therefore “unformed”. Sometimes your device’s charger will stop charging a new battery before it is fully charged. If this happens, simply remove the battery from your device and the re-insert it. The charge cycle should start again. This may happen several times during your first battery charge. Don’t worry, it’s perfectly normal.
18)My new battery is not working at all! What’s up?
New batteries are shipped in a discharged condition and must be charged before use. We generally recommend an overnight charge (approximately twelve hours) for NI-CD batteries and a 24 hour charge for Nickel Metal Hydride. Rechargeable batteries should be cycled- fully charged and then fully discharged 2 to 4 times initially to allow them to reach their full capacity. (Note: it is perfectly normal for a battery to become warm to the touch during charging and discharging).
19)What causes short lifetime of battery? How to prolong the lifetime of battery?
1.Reason:
a.Charger or electro circuit can’t be fit for the battery.
b.Overcharge and over discharge, etc.
c.Battery can’t comply with the charging requirement.
2.Solutions:
a.Use the good charger.
b.Charge the battery after it automatically powers off, then full charge the battery.
c.Avoid erroneous usage of battery, such as heavy pressure, short circuit, fall off and so on.
20)How to charge your new replacement laptop battery properly?
Some laptops with Lithium-Ion batteries use technology of SBS (brightness battery system), which can measure battery’s life accurately. Although lithium-ion battery has many merits, we still need to master some professional charge method to prolong battery’s life and made it maintain long time power supply. Your new laptop battery requires three complete charge/discharge cycles before use and achieving maximum capacity. It means the battery would have to be charged fully and then be discharged fully. Repeat it three times before starting to use the battery. By this way, battery’s internal chemical materials can be activated and its internal chemical reaction can come into the optimal state. After the activation, the battery can be charged and used freely. But the battery will have to be discharge completely once a month so that the battery activity can be released by such deep discharge and battery life can be maintained. If battery is idle for over 3 month, it is also necessary to conduct 3 cycles of complete charge and discharge to ensure that the battery is activated. You must control the charge time commendably when you use a Ni-MH battery. Please remember not to overcharge continually, or it will shorten the battery’s life. Furthermore, NI-MH battery should be fully discharge or 30% charge before being charged. It also needs three complete discharge/charge cycles before starting to use it. Most users are Alternating current instead of a battery for power supply when they use laptops. Actually the battery needs to be used at least once or twice per month to release the battery power completely. Then fully charge the battery with AC power once. Please remember that it is always good for rechargeable batteries to use up the battery power giving them a full charge. Because the Li-Ion battery used by laptop has its own laziness and would lose its activeness when being idle for long time. It needs to be reactivated. It is suggested to take out the battery form laptop when it uses AC power supply indoor to avoid having the battery get charged frequently. It is also suggested to shut down the laptop so that battery can be fully charged. Do not remove the AC power during charge. In addition, the power of battery can easily be used up and most laptops have only one battery. For this reason, some manufacturers have developed a fast charge feature that enables the battery to replenish its power at the fastest pace after power draining up. One hour charge can give the battery backup over 90% of its power. Why is not 100%? Because frequent fast 100% charge will greatly shorten the battery life. In order to prolong battery life, fast charge will have to be switches to slow charge (namely constant voltage charging method) when battery reaches 90% charge. For a common laptop, the best charge method is to turn off the laptop when its battery is being charged. The charge time will be shortened by 30% by this method.
Personal View:-
1.Regular use, such as using it once or twice a month.
2.Each use is sufficient to discharge the battery; even 1% of electricity is also used (depending on model). Then put a few hours, and then fully charged, the charging time to ensure that.
3.It is best not to use the laptop while charging side or nothing to add battery together with (even full).
4.Full, slightly used for a battery to charge between 60%-80%, and then save to normal, it is considered self-discharge the battery and battery chip data elements.
