DV9000 laptop battery life

I have a HP dv9000 series laptop for about 2 years and my battery is in poor condition.  It is typical of this battery life is only 2 years? Given that I keep my PC plugged in most of the time, he wears on the battery? I just want to know if I should buy a new battery or do I check to see if it is covered by the warranty.

Thank you

I'll save you the trouble. Even if you get the longer warranty the battery is covered with padt 1 year generally not unless you have obtained the guarantee of store on top of the HP warranty. 2 years isn't a bad battery life. That's all what I expect to get. Battery life is governed by the number of cycles of discharge and duration and charges since. If you take a battery that is new in the box, it will be lower after 2 years when new even if you do not use. If you literally never use the battery you can remove it during the execution of the laptop on the sector. He unloads up to like 30% and store it in a cool, dry and dark place (but not in the refrigerator).

    Hey owners of Toshiba! Is anyone having problems with their battery life? My laptop does not work as long as it should! Or so it seems. Any ideas what could be the problem? What is the machine?

    I bought a Clevo M72S/M721S Mini laptop, a year ago. When I bought it, it had about 10 minutes of battery life. Now, it lasts 5 minutes without the AC is plugged in. When it is plugged in, however, it is said that the battery is charging and is 100%. I don't know if it's a dead battery, a battery life vulnerability in XP, a bad connection or something else.

    Critics of this mini are not too abundant, but I found a couple for the re-brand model, and the life of the battery when new, was, on average, about 75 to 90 minutes. Since you never more than 10 minutes BL, and it seems to work fine on AC, my guess would be a bad battery from the beginning. Too bad it's probably out of warranty, but you can try to contact them in any case to see if there is perhaps a battery recall.

    You could try to calibrate the battery. Read this article and see whether or not you want to try it:

  • Samsung with windows 7 - extending laptop battery life

    Hi all

    I have Samsung R522 laptop with Windows 7. As susally I have been using it with the charger connected, Windows asked me to chrge battery only at 80% of capacity in order to improve the life of the battery.

    My question is how I could change it back so that battery would be charged to full 100%. Please help me. I'm trying to find answer to this issue for some time and no progress so far.

    Thanks for any help in advance

    The thing is that I can't charge more than 80%. When I keep the charger connected, it just stays at 80%. It shows 80% in the system and on the battery itself.

    I remember exactly this question, but I remember that I had to agree by choosing Yes Yes/no alternative. It's really crazy: P

    Thank you

    PS by the way I wasn't the solution on the Samsung website... im go...

    ---------------------------------------------

    I found it

    This is the option in the BIOS, called "dough-Extension of Life Cycle. If set to on, then the battery is charged to 80% is the maximum capacity.

  • about laptop battery life

    It is good to use the laptop directly plugged into outlet, without the battery? I recently bought the pavilion laptop g4 2049tx, this method of using laptop could long life of the battery and the laptop.

    Hello

    It is certainly very well run Notepad on just the AC adapter.

    Regarding the battery once a month, reinsert the battery, turn the machine on and let the battery fully charged.  Unplug the AC adapter and let the unit run until you start getting a "low battery" warning  Completely load it again, then let the battery drain to about 40%.  Shut down the laptop, remove the battery and store it separately in a cool place.  Repeat this procedure each month will help you keep your battery in good condition.

  • Want to m6-w105dx: m6-w105dx battery life

    Hello

    I have a laptop Envy m6-w105dx and it is mostly used at home. For this reason, it is still connected to the power. As I am not able to remove the battery, I was wondering if being connected to the power supply of all time could damage the battery or decrease its average life expectancy.

    If I damage the battery, what would it be the solution for this problem?

    It is a common question. Connected to power all the time is not damage to the battery, but it may result in a little less than life. The battery has a microchip inside that account of the cycles and if you turn it off let it sit for a few days and then turn on the computer back will have to charge the battery upward, less than 95% and it will read as an undergraduate and the battery has stop working after a certain number of cycles to prevent it from being a danger to the power. Older lithium-ion batteries can become a danger if they have too many cycles of charge/discharge on them so batteries are actually pre-programmed to stop working until they're really chemically dead.

    The battery may not overload, however, for plugging it on food all the time isn't a bad thing regarding who's going. The cycles can occur only if you have the power and turn off and let off and have the power adapter to the coast for a few days or more. Even if you remove and store the battery it will lose the ability only to sitting in storage, so there is really no perfect answer to the laptop battery life.

    So basically, for most people, the battery is something 'use it and forget it ". Don't let him lead your life, just leave it in place and use the laptop as you want. The only thing that you should avoid is discharging the battery below 15-20%. They do not like a lot. There is no memory effect most so you can use it on battery, run it to say 70% then it load up. No problem with that.

    You have to assume that you will have a new battery at some point if you keep the laptop more than about 2 years.

    Post back with more questions.

  • 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.

  • SVE1712Z1EB. IT1 SONY % life laptop battery.

    My Sony/Vaio Lap Top is 18 months old.

    I noticed that efficency of battery / life seems to have deteriorated. After 3-4 hours of connection charge to the electric power, the battery never reached 100%, but maximum load is only 80%.

    After that less than 2 hours of use without connecting the power supply, the battery capacity is zero e PC is turned off.

    It is a normal battery performance or is defective and should be replaced by deepening?

    Thank you

    Batteries deteriorate after a year or two and keep the load for shorter and shorter periods. The batteries are generally covered under warranty-not sure how long your warranty is. Most HP laptops have a warranty from 1 to 3 years depending on the model.

    56sunliner,

    Don't know if it's the same problem as you but my grandson had a laptop DV2000 and after only 2 1/2 years had to replace the battery. He looked online at the HP store and found a long battery life for its DV2000.

    long story short, the adapter supplied with the original battery wouldn't charge a new (or if he was in charge, was wwwwaaaayyyyy taking too long to register as % increase. Bought a 90 Watt charger (HP) and everything is ok with laptop and the battery.

    A second (aftermarket) charger never bad to have around, as they often die.
