• MacBook battery life

  I just bought my macbook two weeks ago and at first, the battery life display 10 hours of use but after I have updated to OS X EL Capitan, it seems that the battery life has become much shorter than 5 hours of use. I set the brightness to save battery, but the battery consumption is always the same. Is it normal to be like this or what should I do to save the battery. If anyone knows how I should improve my macbook battery, it will be very good to know that for the most part, I need to travel and need more autonomy.

  Open the activity monitor (in the Utilities folder). Click the CPU tab and click the column heading of time CPU. All items showing a very high number?

• Portege series, different on R100 and M100 battery life?

  Hello everyone,

  I want to buy a new laptop with a high mobile work autonomy. The R100 and M100 are retained, but anyone know if there are differences in the life of the battery. I tested the two NBs to my dealer, but I have no experience of working with them over a long period.

  Goodbye, Tanya-LB

  Hi Tanya,

  I had the honour to test these two laptops in our society. They are all two developed business model for great mobility and battery life. On one side you have the R100 with a Centrino ULV 900 MHz (ULV = Ultra Low Voltage) and a lithium-ion-polymer battery. This combination allows a battery life of 2 hours and with the second extra battery up to 6.4 hours.

  On the other side, you have the M100 with a LV Centrino with 1200 Mhz (LV = low voltage) and lithium-ion battery. If you need that one unloading in use battery is approximately 4.5 hours with an extra battery up to very good 8.5 hours.

  So in my opinion, these books are really well designed and complete specifications of high mobility. The M100 has the highest battery life and performance.

  If you have any questions, ask me.

• What is the battery life of a Satellite L30-113?

  Hello
  I think to buy this laptop for £299.99 from Play.com
  However there is no mention of the battery life, and I really need to know what it is if I buy this laptop.

  I'll use for net surfing, msn and DVD :-)
  Thank you.

  Hello

  I know the machine, but main autonomy depends on the battery capacity. As I know come in two sizes: 2000 mAh and 4000 mAh.

  If you use it just for surfing and etc, you will have a battery life of 2 hours with the 4000 mAh.
  But be careful: If you have several applications that run in the background or opened, your battery life might be shorter. (more charges system means shorter battery life)

  And finally and especially your battery life also depends on your powersaver settings, so you will need to find the configuration that fits for you (performance and battery life)

  Hope I could help you

• Reduced in the coming W540 battery life?

  First the good news - it's going to be a W540

  http://shop.Lenovo.com/us/en/laptops/ThinkPad/w-series/w540/

  Strangely the W540 shows a maximum battery life of 6 hours down from the 7.4 of the W530?

  540: "battery lifeup to 6 hours with the battery 6 cells standard."

  530: "battery lifeup to 7.4 hours with battery 6 cells removable.

  No idea why?

• New owner of smartwatch 3, only about 12 hours of battery life!

  Hi, seems that I'm not the problem of battery life only experience on smartwatch 3. Just received the watch last week to use with my Xperia XZ, overall satisfied with the watch but the life of the battery.

  Expected to last two days, but have misery through one day, software up-to-date, tried resetting and turning still wide screen, still not sustainable as it should.

  Use it mostly for review, some applications and sometimes music.

  My Apple Watch series 2 rated power up to 18 hours on the other hand lasts about two days, was expected at least on the SW3.

  What is the problem, and have the battery gets worse with subsequent updates? Someone here suggested it could be lifelog app the cause, but have no experience with it before the last update.

  Any help is appreciated, thanks.

  Thanks for the info. Just updated earlier today and Lifelog reinstalled/activated on the phone, SW3 far, no battery drain and seams very stable batterylife, 12 hours and up to 66% with about 22 hours battery left . A happy field here.

  Anyone else having this problem, updates to Lifelog and go to carry Android app and apps to sync again, to ensure that the update is synchronized to your SW3.

  

• NB305 - what settings should I use to get 11 hours of battery life?

  Hello

  looking for help with my new NB305-10F. I just bought the netbook and drained the battery before recharging. I disabled the netbook for recharging. This morning when I turned on the computer it says 8 hours - it was me running with option power saver - with the brightness of the screen to a minimum.

  So, my question is, what should I do for gt 11 hours of battery life as told when I bought the netbook? I hope that someone will be able to answer my question!

  Thanks in advance.

  Hi willbar,.

  I think you should charege/charging the battery up to 5 - 10 times to get the maximum battery life and only 1 or 2 times it charges s not enough.

  Also the battery life expectancy is depending on the applications that you are running. 11 hours, you won't get that if you don't do anything on the netbook, until it turn off by itself, but if you navigate in Internet, write emails and watch videos, 8 hours is really good and you can be satisfied with this :)

• Satellite T230 - 11 p - only 4 or 5 hours battery life

  I recently bought by Satellite T230 - 11 p. Once I took it out of the package I plugged the AC adapter and used for a while and kept until it is fully charged. But the battery life last for 4 or 5 hours. In the manual, he wrote the life of the battery last for 8 hours.

  Please help me with this problem. Should I replace the battery by a new, or - is this normal?

  Hi Krishj,

  In my battery of 4-5 hours notice, life is beautiful and everything is ok with your computer laptop because it s always according to your use. If you run a large number of programs and using the brightness of the display, the laptop needs more energy. Which is a perfectly normal behavior.

  Usually 8 hours autonomy you will have with the brightness of the display only low and high level of energy saving.

• Half hours of battery life, please help.

  Please help, my e200 is only for 30 min of the batter life!

  I have load to full. In 2-3 seconds, it fell to 75%.

  In 5 minutes, it is down to 50%.

  In 25 minutes, he fell to 25%.

  Soon after, she stops a lack of power.

  Had it for over a year, the battery life has decreased slowly, but this is the worst I've ever seen. I would like to buy a new battery, but it's a battery of property, and I don't have a credit card so I can't get one online.

  Please help a loyal user of SanDisk. I can't go for a jog for 45 minutes with a 30-minute mp3 player!

  Hey, you can get one at your local Radio Shack, although their price is higher.

  You can order online for pick up at the local store too.  The linked page has a phone number for the service as well.

• Satellite MX40-231: Question about length of battery life

  What should be the duration of battery life when I use the normal power profile? and with the help of constantly internet internet and Ms word.
  I hope you can help me

  Kind regards

  Mark Holland

  Hello

  I found the same information, but I put t think you can use 4 hours. My opinion is that you can use it two hours. I recommend to set the CPU at a lower level and also check other settings like the brightness of the screen. If you set all these lower-level settings, you can save useful energy and work for long periods.

  Good bye

• Battery life has decreased

  I have a Macbook Pro Retina Display, which has been bought only mid-2014. The life of the battery to 100% used, i.e. about 10 hours if not more in the last two days, it dropped up to 7 hours or less.

  Before that, I would take my computer to school with 100% and return at least 50% to go and now I can barely make it through the school day! Only, I use Word, Safari, and most of the time Powerpoint and make sure that all my other apps are off to save battery and yet he still eats battery like crazy. It will say there are still 6 remaining hours and 40 minutes, it will go up to 4.5 hours! I have no games or large application running so I don't see why my battery life has decreased in this measure. The fault might be my charger? I always use my laptop came with that but there cuts everywhere and a few pieces of the wire is exposed.

  Please let me know what I can do to restore my batter life.

  You need to replace your charger, but it probably has nothing to do with your battery life - the 'intelligence' isn't in the battery charger. There are two basic reasons for the battery life decrease: 1) using more electricity or 2) your battery cannot hold as much power as it did when it was new.

  Discover #1 open the activity monitor and click the CPU tab. In the columns, he scored a % CPU which shows the percentage of cycles CPU used by a process. Click on the label and the list of processes are sorted to use above the lowest. Over the next few days keep an eye on her to monitor all the processes that seem to have and maintain a high percentage. My computer will be a process of spike up to 50-60% but down then down quickly. The only time where I see a sustained high CPU usage is when I do something like a large file for archiving or extraction of a CD.

  To check the #2, click the Apple menu and select about this Mac. Then click on the button tray . In the left pane, look for power. You will find information on your battery, including the number of cycles and the health of the battery. Under normal conditions of use of 18 to 24 months old computer should get close enough to use even on a charge like new - I expect maybe a loss of 30 to 40 minutes. But if you have a large number of cycles on the computer - say an average of 5 cycles per week for as long as you have owned the computer, the battery may be almost on time when it needs to be replaced. Battery life depends on several factors which can vary greatly from one person to the next.

• Toshiba Satellite C50t - A - battery life is very short

  Hi all

  I have problem my C50t-A battery life is very short (less than two hours) and use usually laptop for reading, then how to check actual life of the battery and if there is problem in my battery. The application of integrity monitor shows me the battery is good, but this makes it not correct because I need to charge my phone every two hours or maybe less and this very denoising since sometimes not easy to load in any place. Are there program or ask to check my laptop battery?

  Download a program called cpuid.com HWMonitor to display the level of the battery.

  Lithium batteries only last about 3-4 years before you have to replace. They lose about 30% - 20% capacity every year.

• Tecra M3: Question about the length of battery life

  I used to have a M2 which had a battery life of approximately 3 hours and 45 minutes. Last January, I had a M3 and was surprised it was only 1:30 running just Word and a memory low music program. Closing of the screen and running the program of music made him until 1:45. I thought it was because he had a faster processor, etc., but two of my friends also had Toshibas and they thought it was a battery problem.
  So what is the battery life of the 1.83 GHZ M3 supposed to be?

  Hello

  According to the description of the unit, the battery should run about 3 hours.
  But the battery working time depends on many different things, and this isn't a precise value. CA? s very important how you use Notepad, what programs are running, how old is the battery, how devices run is together, etca? ¦
  In this case generally Ca? s not easy to tell if the battery has a fault or not.

• Experiences over seven years with the battery life in laptop computers Tecra

  Seven years ago, I bought a Tecra 780DVD, five years ago a Tecra 8100 and two years ago a Tecra S1. They re all still in regular use and I ve used now six packs of lithium ion batteries. My experience suggests that these four guidelines are worth observing:

  1. it is preferable to the hibernation and remove the battery if the laptop will be inactive for more than 2 or 3 days.
  2 operating time vary a lot between the samples of battery even with the same operating conditions.
  3 leave the charger plugged in with the full light on doesn't seem to hurt (despite some of the recommendations).
  4. better is not the first time, that it is unable to charge the battery of junk. The trick described below may reset the battery and get more useful life out of it.

  Tecras see the end of battery life by battery light flashes orange or stay off when you try to reload. Last week when I returned from vacation what happened the 780 (now the WiFi print server) and I felt like déjà vu because all 4 batteries (three on the 780) and the other on the 8100 that I ve had previously fail expired the same way they failed to charge after 7 to 14 days of hibernation with the battery left in. In my view, that it can hardly be a coincidence.

  I still had another 780 old farm and an old battery for 8100 that both failed about two years ago I did some tests. The batteries two 780 showed 10-11 volts on a voltmeter, but when I put them in the laptop and plugged in the charger, the led load always flashed. However, when I plugged the laptop battery already started the grid only, the hanging lamp orange and after an hour or two went green.

  I think this shock treatment can have done in battery electronics forget they were supposed to be dead. Anyway, I did with all three batteries and then ran to see how long d last. The results were:

  (1) the 780 battery failed last week (after 36 months used) can now run the laptop for an hour.
  (2) the 8100 battery (with the active service of 16 months, but 'believed dead' for two years) will now run for 10 minutes or more.
  (3) the 780 battery believed dead for two years (after 19 months used) appears to load but t does not work the laptop. Half of the battery ended up hot and half cold, so now I guess that it s really dead.

  Hoping others will compare notes, I've summarized below how long my battery packs lasted before they refused to pay more.

  Tecra780DVD:
  Original battery: 30 months (discarded too soon. Might have gotten more if I had tried to trick reset).
  First replacement: 19 months (stored for two years, after which reset didn't work).
  Second alternative: 36 months (after reset now works for an hour).

  Tecra 8100:
  Original battery: 16 months (stored for 2 years. After reset now lasts 10 minutes).
  First replacement: 41 months and always well run.

  Tecra S1:
  Original battery: 29 months and always well run.

  All are genuine Toshiba and operating conditions are quite similar for all. Laptops tend to run 4-8 hours per day with the charger plugged and maybe half an hour on battery only. Sometimes we forget and the charger remains connected all night.

  I m now wish I d tried the trick of reset on all batteries as soon as they failed, but at least I seem to have rescued two batteries. Even a moment of execution as short as 10 min is useful on a laptop that s especially power sector. It protects against power failure and you can keep your battery in the fridge until you need it for a trip.

• Portege R500-126 battery life

  I bought the Portege R500-126 @2 nine weeks ago and with SDS and no DVD/CD, I was expecting, as announced, to * 8 hours * autonomy

  To test, I fully charged the battery that was supplied with the machine, selected power plan 'Power Saver', out the charger cable and curled only 3 hours later, with no use of computer laptop whatoever, the battery is almost discharged

  On the Toshiba sales site, I noticed they sell one * Li - Ion 6 CELLS 5800 MAH * battery for £95 + VAT, is the same battery that comes with R500-126 and is anyone else having this problem?

  Hello

  I found this website product Toshiba Portégé R500-126:
  http://UK.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/JSP/productPage.do?PRODUCT_ID=145824

  But unfortunately, there is nothing on the duration of battery life.
  There is only this;
  Maximum life: currently no Windows Vista battery reference available official result

  Still is it that Vista needs more energy as another Vista OS (i.e. XP) eats the laptop and my knowledge resources, he needs two times more energy than XP.
  In addition the run time depends on hardware configuration. Stronger systems of waste more energy as devices with a lower yield.

  However, to you in question;
  AFAIK the R500 was equipped with the PA3612U-1BAS/BRS 6cell battery pack.

  See you soon
