battery life was very short on Slate 8 pro

The battery on my slate 8 Pro drains 20-30% every 12 hours, even when it is not used.  I thought maybe it was due to some applications that I had loaded, so I factory reset it and I loaded only the builtin Mail (check schedule) and a couple of new apps.  When I left the House this morning, this is 95%, when I got home tonight, it's 65 percent.  Under the battery, it will appear at the top and then WiFi.  I have a good wifi signal throughout.

Other than the most minimal config, this is a stock version - characterizes this type of performance?  Another my tablet is an older iPad, so I'm surprised that it far surpasses this slate on battery.

Thanks for all tips/tricks you may have on how to draw towards the bottom.

Just to follow up - I reset and only set up the email.  So far so good - I estimate draining the battery is less than 5% per day at rest.

Another thing I did was to remove from the case (not HP) - I kept seeing light so that in the case.  I wonder if the magnets are not quite right and the table kept thinking that opened the lid.

  • My iPod shuffle (one of the recent 4th gen ones) battery life is really short suddenly

    So I got my iPod Shuffle since mid August 2015 and, for some reason, the battery life actually only spent about 1 hour. It's never the same beforehand in January, but it seemed a bit more faster than the usual battery run (probably 5 hours or more) and in February, it dropped to about 2 hours. He went away for a while, when I used it less but recently after I have charged it and began to do something random (probably stimulation of things) it lasts barely an hour. What can I do to fix this?

  • The battery life on a single charge by Satellite Pro A60

    I bought this linen flea market (February 8, 2005 manufacturing date) and I was wondering if I should invest in a spare battery. After charging full, it shows lasting about 1 h 20 min, but diminishes very quickly with use it and don't think I have more than one of the time out of it.

    The battery is only a 8 cells Li - ion 14.8V 4300 mAh

    Should / can expect something better?

    Hello

    I think that it s not easy to say how long the laptop must works only with a battery.
    Battery working time depends on the use of the laptop. You know, it depends on the applications and devices that move on the laptop. Heavy software like games or video needs more graphics performance as office software. If the player or disc HARD turns all the time so the battery performance will also decreases a lot faster.

    But you can also try buying a battery of best performances of the witch. On the Toshiba page, I found a battery for Satellite Pro A60 and it s a Pack Li - ion, 9 cells, 4500mAh battery. As you can see, this battery supports 9 cells and 4500mAh and should be better like your old battery first.

    Someone else has problems with how long does the battery last? I just bought mine yesterday and the battery life is very short. I am very disappointed. He had a full charge to 01:00 and I put it and when I woke up at 7:30, it was like 26%.

    Hello

    Battery life varies depending on use and other factors.

    During tests, for example, Apple has reached 18 hours of battery life with the next use: 90 time checks, 90 notifications, 45 minutes of usage of the app and a workout of 30 minutes with Apple Watch Bluetooth music playback.

  • 'Power saver' mode battery life has suddenly deteriorated.

    Hi - I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 32-bit on a laptop Toshiba (plug here).  The laptop is a little less than 2 years old and is in constant daily use.

    My battery life got suddenly shorter.  I know this because of my job (I'm a student, and I'm taking notes for the office of disabled people in my uni, so I have to carry my laptop to all my classes and taking notes).  I often have to run my laptop without being able to connect, as some halls are not equipped for it.  Accordingly, I am very tuned to what I can out of my battery.  Before Christmas, with the power saving mode and the brightness of the screen turned down as down as possible and unnecessary services and programs all does not, I could get about 1 hour and 45 minutes out of the laptop, give or take.  But now, 4 weeks later (beginning of the College's new mandate) I can barely get out of 50 minutes with the same settings.
    I understand that the battery life decreases with age.  However, it is a very sharp and makes me think it's abnormal.
    I would also like to point out that when I move the mouse over the battery meter, there is a distress message / (yellow triangle with "!" inside) under where it says "the current power Plan: energy saving»  The message said: "your current plan may reduce system performance."
    I'm fairly certain that this message never used to be there.  In addition, on the 'High Performance' and 'Balanced' it doesn't have this message!
    I changed the power options advanced to answer me.  But I have reset default values on all levels of electrical energy, in "Change Plan settings" in the "Power Options", but it did not help.
    I just reset the power management using the command line (powercfg - restoredefaultschemes), which got rid of my other projects to be able to staff.  I was not able to check if it worked yet - I'll do it later - but I am not optimistic because this warning message is still there.  

    One last thing: when it is plugged in, that it charges 99%, not 100% as it was!  It is said, "connected - not load."  Can be linked.

    Any ideas?  This is a major drawback for me because I depend on to get out 2 conferences out of my battery!

    PS the display brightness is at the very least, and I can't see new programs or processes that are not running before.   In the past few weeks I did a CC registry clean for the first time.

    The battery probably affects at its end of life... If you have any calibration tool in your bios that run... If this is not the case, a complete emptying and full load may help... Jared Gray - checked CrossLoop Helper - www.crossloop.com/jaredgray

  • Satellite A100-1011E - how to extend the battery life

    Hello world

    I would like to ask you for advice. Given that I just bought this laptop, I would not my battery life shorten as soon as my old laptop. You plug the power cable when the battery is fully charged? Since I'm on cell regularly, 3 h battery is not enough for me. All do you advise me to take the battery out and use that? We hope to get all the valuable tips here. Thank you!

    Hi jimmytee,
    After the available studies, newsletters and my experience, there is no need to remove the battery if fully charged when working with AC plugged in. It is recommended only to tell - and recharge the battery once a month, not more. You should not work with AC plugged on and removed the battery.
    Furthermore, I'm fighting currently with the battery in a new unit. The battery itself was very fast discharge with the unit is turned off and removed ca connection. Now, the Toshiba service changed the battery. Will see how the situation will be after a few days.

  • Problems of Smartphones BB 9800 Torch for blackBerry battery life - 7 h max

    Hello world

    I got the new torch for less than a week now. He began to have problems of major battery two days ago. I can get about 7: 00 course emails collection now (with about a phonecall) until the battery is completely dead. I have the phone set for 2G only with GPS off.

    I called the carrier and they say they'll send a new phone only (no battery) as soon as possible because they think that the problem is the phone. Apparently the BB now sees the phone and battery as two separate components, and rather than ship a new group by phone and battery, they ship only one...

    Someone at - it elsewhere in the United Kingdom / United States have had problems with the battery? Is this a known fault? I thought that the autonomy of the torch was supposed to be amazing...

    I use the phone for business and if it's something like the storm (I returned and exchanged against of the 9000 "BOLD"), he must go back and be replaced by something reliable like the 9000 "BOLD".

    Thank you very much

    Here is my experience of Torch 9800 battery life and the "fix."  Again, out of the box, battery life was fine, I started to add applications and in the coming days the life drained dough at a rate of about 5% every 15 minutes. I've always done so that all applications have been stopped (with the exception of those who must run as electronic mail, etc.), but found no difference. I uninstalled applications, with the exception of a called automatic locking that allows swipe to unlock the screen.  Yet, with no luck, I did a complete reset to factory settings and found my problem solved. I reinstalled since all applications except AutoLock, I have the wifi and Bluetooth on and always excellent autonomy - no complaints whatsoever!  I installed a screen similar locking program called SwipeLock and still no problems.  I have my screen set at 10% and autodim.  Therefore, if AutoLock is the culprit, or there was something else, the origin of the problem, that I don't know, but I hope that if you follow the same path that I describe above, who is she to back out of the default zone, it should solve the problem - at least that has been my experience.

  • Satellite S50-B-12Z: battery life cycle Option does not appear in the eco utility

    Hello everyone.

    I am facing a strange problem. The eco utility allows to work ok with win 10 on my S50-B-12Z satellite and I used the eco charging battery I've run mainly my laptop plugged in.

    At some point, I need to do a system restore. I have re-installed the 10 victory and also the latest version of the eco utility downloaded from the Toshiba site. The problem is that when I open the utility eco, the choice of "battery life cycle", where you can select the eco reload or not, seems no more! So I find myself with the battery to 80% connected but does not support.

    I already tried to uninstall and reinstall the utility or install an earlier version of it.

    Is there something I could do in order the choice of "battery life cycle" to reappear or to cancel the State of charge of eco and leave my battery to charge again 100%?

    Thank you

    I have the same problem with my P50 - A satellite. Battery-life cycle does not appear in the new eco Win 10 utility installed. Version is: 3.0.0.0006. Older versions do not work, I tried also.

    More than 80% of maximum load, not 100% .

    I hope someone has a suggestion. To 80% battery life is too short

  • 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

  • BlackBerry Q10 Q10 - the battery life low, overheating, restarting the device.

    Hello

    My camera has been upgraded to 10.3 towards the end of February, I think.  Battery life was low at first, but eventually improved to an acceptable level.  (Acceptable = able to make it through the day without charge.)

    In recent days, the battery life was horrible.  At 01:00 this morning, it was fully charged and from 05:00, it's about 40%, without any use at all.  All idling with the screen off.

    I read some suggestions in the forums.  I deleted all my email accounts, restarted the unit, then added them.  I also confirmed that there are no other applications running that might be draining the battery.

    I bought the unit directly from BlackBerry back to November, so I have no support available carrier.

    So sometimes after typing a message, I hung up and he begins to restart.  I'm quite sure physical were issued with the phone - it is never dropped or roughed up somehow.

    When I look at my use of the battery, I see the remaining 38%.  System of 26%, and PIM services is 8.6%.

    Someone more detailed suggestions on how to fix this?

    Bryan.

    Hello and welcome to the BlackBerry support fourms!

    Try to veiw of the last 12 hours of the CPU usage. The heat is probably high CPU load.

    I also recommend that you recharge the device through BlackBerry link software. Good luck and keep me posted.

  • New Satellite L850-142 - very short battery life!

    Hello world!

    Yesterday I bought my new laptop and put it to charge right away all night without using it.
    Today, when I am on, within 15-20 minutes, the battery life is down to 89%.

    My question is, is this normal autonomy?

    I already address energy conservation, brightness etc. so as not to lose the life of the battery.
    It is my first laptop, so can someone please advise me?

    Thank you!

    10% for 20 minutes, for me, is OK. I imagine that you will be able to use your laptop up to 2 hours of battery power. Of course, it depends on the parameters of energy and the way how do you use it.

    Don t worry everything and not simply continue to test your new piece of hardware.

  • Satellite A200 short battery life - it pays very quickly

    Today, I have restored my A200 Satellite to factory settings.
    It is the 4th time that I did in the last 2 years.

    Now my battery life is screwed.

    100% loaded with about 10 minutes to the end (image: http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/3548/100g.png)

    85% charged to 8 minutes (image: http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/723/46880270.png)

    What is going on?

    I'm afraid that if I restore settings to "fix" the problem it only make it up worse and end being 2 minutes from the end to completely charged.
