It is best to run low battery or all the way down between cycles? It hurt battery to keep our laptop plugged into a large part of the time?

Hello

Most modern laptops use lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries.

If frequently drain you a lithium-ion battery, and then recharge it, it can quickly lose its ability to hold a charge, which also affects the accuracy of the battery meter.

The practice of completely draining the battery and then full charge is recommended which applied on the old batteries to nickel-cadmium (NiCd) and, to a lesser extent, the batteries to nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH).

Lithium-ion batteries last longer if you load them often, a little at a time and try to maintain a minimum load of about 40 percent capacity.

  • my pc CPU running at 100% for all the programs I opened / what is the problem and how to solve?

    my pc CPU fan runs very strongly & the processor running at 100% for all the programs I opened. DO NOT KNOW IF IT IS A VIRUS IN THE PC WAS WORKING FINE A FEW DAYS AGO. How can I solve this issue?

    Hello

    You did changes to the computer before this problem?

    Step 1: Check if the problem persists in the clean boot state.

    From your computer by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine if a background program is interfering with your game or program. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot".

    Reference:
    How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" State
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    1. click on start and then click Run.
    2. type msconfig and click OK.

    The System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.

    3. click on the tab general, click Normal Startup - load all services and device drivers and then click OK.
    4. When prompted, click on restart to restart the computer.

    Step 2: Also, look for error messages in the event viewer. If you find error messages after return the exact error message so that we can help you better.

  • The fan runs all the time because xinetd running more than 80% all the time.  Someone else has the same problem?

    xinetd is running at 83% or more 24 x 7 devours battery in 2 hours or less and making the fan run all the time.  I am connected to a bug report, and it turns out that it was a duplicate because someone else had the same problem.  However, I have no access to the other bug report or find anything either in the discussion forums or online.  Anyone experience this problem?

    Hello gorgonzola1111,

    I doubt that someone else has this problem because xinetd does not part of macOS. Have you installed it from a package of "ports" 3rd party?

  • Remains of problem: computer battery laptop battery 100% all the time (not connected), the LED flashing light?

    My laptop is HP Probook s 4430 (product number: QJ670AV). I just bought it for 4 months. Last night when I finished my work and I stopped him then I plugged the adapter to recharge. This morning I woke up and found that next to the Jack to the battery charge flashes constantly (in red). Normally, it turns red when it is plugged and becomes white when the battery is going to be full and stop when not plugged in. Now I use my laptop (without charging) for 2 hours and the battery icon on the screen said: "100%". What is the problem? I'm so worried. Please help me. Thanks to you all!

    Hello Lavender148,

    Your laptop is not unload.

    Do a hard reset.

    Turn off the computer.

    Remove the power cable and battery.

    Hold down the power button for 15 sec while booth energy sources are deleted.



    This should reset the hardware in the computer.

    That you put it on press the F10 key. This will load the BIOS setup utility.

    Press F9 to load the default values.

    Press F10 to save and exit.



    When the computer starts up, check if everything is working.

    I would like to know how everything goes.

    Nice day.

  • HP h8-1141 fan runs at full speed all the time

    Processor and fun of rear cooling fan runs at full speed on Pavilion h8-1141

    Solution:

    I cleaned the inside of the computer and all the fans. It was very dusty.

    Then I pressed my finger on all the cards on the motherboard to make sure they don't lose. As for the fans, I took out and put them back in.

    Now it's working. The fans are back to normal.

  • Still cannot run Premiere Pro 2015 because 'Cannot find device of appropriate reading' is always on display. I can run PP 2014 and all the other programs of cloud of 2015 but not PP2015.

    Still cannot run Premiere Pro 2015 because 'Cannot find device of appropriate reading' is always on display. I can run PP 2014 and all programs of cloud 2015 but not PP2015. When I got this error, I had a mid-2012 Mac Pro running El Capitan 10.11.2 and an Apple ATI Radeon HD5770.  You can't update the drivers with Apple, but El Capitan should have giving me the latest video drivers.

    First try to open but after loading everything it errored out with the "can't find a video playback device adapted." A very cryptic message in my way of thinking. They mean the monitor, video card or what?  In any case, I decided that I must have my video card, so I bought a 4 GB Nvidia GTX 970 MacCards.com card, put it in and got the latest drivers for it, than MacCards.com current guard.  This resulted in no gain. Always the same result right along with the exact error even after loading the PP2015.

    I reinstalled PPCC2015 yesterday and it still loads but never opens and gives me the same error.  I feel like even if I bought a new MacPro and reloaded all software CC, I'd still have the same result. Very depressed of not being able to run the software I pay for every month.

  • HP Pavilion notebook15-ab035ax: computer HP Pavilion 15 laptop turns off suddenly on low battery

    I bought my hp laptop Pavilion in India. Now, I live in England. For the last month or two, I have problems with my laptop. Whenever the laptop is on battery power, it does very quickly. It randomly stops (no stops, just turned off with a gut wrenching tinkling of the hard drive) at any time under load of 50%. no notification of low battery or go into hibernation. It can happen in the middle of typing a sentence or you to browse.

    I ran the diagnostic. Software battery check HP first showed a result of "low battery." I was about to order a new battery, when I ran the software once again, who now says "main battery OK.

    It's very confusing, because even if we agree that the battery has developed a problem, I do not understand why the system is not detect low battery or putting the computer to Hibernate, depending on settings. I checked the drivers - updated.

    The laptop is just a year and 3-4 months.

    Should I replace the battery? Or is it a software error in the new upgrade of windows 10?

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Thank you!

  • Computer laptop windows 7 brand new shows no sign of low battery... stops at 40%

    Two days ago, I bought a new laptop Toshiba Satellite P855-S5200 at Bestbuy. In a few hours I noticed something off the coast on the laptop, the battery. Laptop turns off by itself to 40% without the appearance of the low battery icon. Once he stops, he is unable to turn back without the charger attached to it. The laptop completely initialized once said his 4% of fees and charges all the way back up to 100%. I decided to call the Toshiba support for assistance and they told me that the battery of the laptop was defective. I went back to the store and exchanged the laptop to another; However, this laptop does the same. It stops at 40%... everything is up to date on the laptop (drivers... etc). Low battery notifications are set at 10 and 5%... Help, please

  • T23 battery not charging, the AMBER LIGHT permanently on

    T23

    Only two days ago everything worked well.

    It is perhaps because of a problem or perhaps happens once I installed thinkvantage system update. the update process, an error produced (34%) and can not update again after trying it a few times more.

    This update did not affect the settings on the computer... maybe the bios?

    I tried: remove the battery and it cools before reinstalling again.

    the battery is new.

    the computer can run on battery and therefore the fuse is OK.

    any input is greatly appreciated.


  • Battery Drain on the IPhone 6s tried all what my batterery usually lasts a full 24 hours 6 now even not help

    Tried most everything on the IPhone 6s battery drain because I've updated also OS 9.3.2 my battery went from Excellent too horrible will appreciate greatly any help too recti this question

    Have what troubleshooting you tried? First, go to settings > farm and see what app is listed as using the highest percentage of your battery. You may have a blocked process that seeks to complete. How is - what report you? Weak signal will also cause a drain in the battery. Troubleshooting user steps include reboot, reset, restore from backup, restore to factory; tests after each stage. If you get all the way to the factory restore, make sure that you have a current backup of the phone and after the restoration, test before adding additional content to the device. This can help to rule out software problems.
