  Hey Buddy,

  Where did you read about this procedure to Exchange battery?

  In my opinion, the dough is near end of life because Satellite A100 is old laptop model and if you didn t exchange the battery yet it seems to be bad now.

  Usually, a battery can be recharged 500 - 1000 times and after that, need to replace the battery because it s a part not reusable.

• 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.

• 5s short battery life iPhone, phone like new 6 months.

  I bought my iPhone about 6 months ago. I have problems with the battery life. I plug all night. Unplug in the morning and about 4 hours he spends 100% to 40%, even without me using the telephone. I thought to buy a new battery from Amazon and change myself. I found videos on YouTube showing how do, and it seems very easy to do. Someone out there chaned their own battery before? Was it easy to do? And your phone has worked for you once you have changed your battery yourself?

  Just thought I ask. I am one of these people if it's something I can do for my part, I do. Does anyone has an entry on the situation before I try this on my own?

  Hello

  The battery on the iPhone is not replaceable by the user. The battery - if that is the real problem - is covered by the limited warranty of one year of Apple.  If the iPhone is out of warranty, Apple also offers a service of the battery. The cost for this varies across countries (currently $79 in the United States, for example).

  However, as a first step, I suggest that you try to solve the problem of life battery. You can, for example, to consider measures such as:

  • Review Apple tips to maximize battery performance:
    • https://www.Apple.com/batteries/maximizing-performance/
  • Backup, restore your iPhone to factory settings then set up as new or restore:
    • Use iTunes on your Mac or PC to restore your iPhone, iPad or iPod settings - Apple Support
  • Update the software to the latest version:
    • Update the software on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch - Apple Support iOS

  If the problem persists, I suggest you contact Apple technical support or make a Genius Bar reservation for assistance in identifying / confirming the issue and, if necessary, to set up your service from the available battery options, time and cost.

• Satellite M105-SP381: short battery life - 01:50 mins

  Hi guys,.

  I have a Satellite M105 and I think that Im not getting good battery life out of it. I have had the machine for 1 month and I can barely 01:50 mins on drums, with a minimum brightness and wifi, just surf the web and listen to mp3s. What is the performance expected for this type of machine?

  It has a 1.8 Core Duo, 1 GB RAM, 80 gb HD, ATI x 1300 14 "of clues? I use the watch system to "long term" Toshiba application. My battery was unaffected by the action of voluntary exchange of Toshiba.

  Thank you

  HI Juan,

  Different parts of the book will use you the power at higher or lower rates. Any component with a mechanical action (your hard drive, optical drive, floppy drive, etc.) use generally a little more power than the CPU, RAM etc.

  The effect is to drain the battery faster if the hard drive or optical drive is used. So, generally, is expected to get more autonomy if you use an application such as Word or Excel where there is minimum hard disk activity unless you're constantly saving or loading documents.

  In your case, playback of MP3 files will constantly have to load data from the drive hard (although cached to reduce the number of access) while you browsing the internet is constantly written pages in your Temporary Internet folder (as well as access to your anti-virus database). All this activity hard drive means that the hard drive is never allowed to turn down and therefore do not have to use the power of the battery.

  As long as you follow the usual recommendations to optimize your battery (let it fully discharge from time to time) I think that the time you get really is reasonable for the type of activity that you do.

  Kind regards

• Short battery life of the Macbook Pro 13 "mid-2009

  My Macbook Pro battery does not seem able to last longer then an hour on a full charge. Initially, I set this up to the age and checked the battery status (ALT + click on the battery in the top bar icon), however it says normal. I have always looked after my Mac - full load battery and let it run down completely before recharging - so I don't know if it's just an age thing or another issue.

  In addition, I had a problem for a long period of overheating, even when I use Safari. Using an application that I can see that it reaches 90 degrees celsius, it is worse. If I have a problem with my fan which is itself an overheating of my Mac and drain the battery?

  I tried to use Apple Hardware Test (now D then it starts) but have had no chance to lift anything but the normal login screen.

  MacBook Pro (13-inch, mid 2009)

  2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

  8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3

  Seven years on a LiPo battery? If this is the original, you can thank his long and reliable service so far and to prepare for a replacement. Whatever his 'normal' State

• HP Split x 2-13-r010dx short battery life

  I have a HP Split x 2-13-r010dx I bought a month ago.  It seems that the battery in the computer is very very poor.  I always load up completely overnight and as I am a student and I take it with me during my day and it does not use a lot in classes.  I'm lucky if the battery completely dosnt die during the couse of the day during his sleep in my backpack.  When I use it on battery, literally the battery falls down one percent every two minutes.  Is someone can you please tell me if I do something wrong? I also noticed that when the computer is turned on it is always very hot to the touch, even when he sleeps, could it be linked? I always close my programs when I'm done with them.

  Hello

  The document says he can stay for more than 5 hours:

  http://www.shopping.HP.com/shopping/PDF/g6q88ua.PDF

  but users expect to see this number. In your case, standby is not help (the battery is still hot), looks like something is always running. Just turn off the power when you are not using it or please try to turn off wireless signals when put to sleep.

  Kind regards.

• A7's very short battery life.

  I have two original batteries from sony. They have been completely drained reloaded several times now. I usually have flight Mode. Especially shooting highest priority one moderate update mode. So far, I have never been able to get even 100 moves on the part of the batteries. Even when the camera is turned off there are considerable flow - in about 1-2 weeks more than 60% of battery so that off - I think that it is very unusual.

  In fact, the first time I posted this, Sony traded the camera (but not the battery) and now they re proposes to replace the batteries, one at a time. It's that it is unlikely that two cameras in a row are not likely to be defective. So, is it the batteries, or would be - this something I do inadvertently? I could really use help and advice on that.

  It is better that you have the camera with batteries rated by a technician. Please visit our eService site for more information about warranty and repairs.

• 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-blackBerry Smartphones don't curve NO battery life

  Hello all I just bought a blackberry curve 8250. .i responsible for four hours and is gone to work... low and behold a few hours my blackberry was dead! I was shocked and upset I had no phone every day... I went home and charge it for 10 hours... It's just 10 hours and low and here are 15 minutes the bar disappear from... as soon as I'm at work I charge it again... This is absurd.

  My Nokia lasted 3 days! I have no midn load blackberry every day, but with a life of 2 hours is a joke... Of course, it must be faulty? I haven't yet started emailing or still... just browsing using blackberry mesenger and a few quick phone calls...

  It is important to note that I don't live in a 'black box' I have no reception in the House with optus but telstra and vodafone are very well... again my nokia never had a short battery life... can someone help me out here... im really regretting buying a blackberry and I'm stuck with it for 2 years now!

  If your battery runs out THAT fast, you have other ongoing things.

  This, for now, with smart BlackBerry powered phone, remove the battery for a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to restart.

  There is no harm in it, and doing so will kill all active applications.

• Battery life springs from 0% to 100% in 5 minutes

  I currently have a HP Pavilion dv6-7007TX Entertainment Notebook PC running Windows 7 64 bit. While my laptop, charge the battery life suddenly springs from 0% to 100% within minutes as shown in notfication area. Afterwards, the battery life does not, and is still stuck at 100%. This causes a real problem for me as the laptop that I am unable to tell if the battery is almost discharged.

  Can anyone help pls?

  The material has been eliminated.

  If it was the charger, the question should have died while he was just the battery.

  If it was the battery, he should have gone away while he was just the charger.

  It might be a deeper hardware problem, but it usually isn't.

  Windows has software that is responsible for reading and which indicates the State of charge, so it would not display correctly if this software has been altered in some way.

  There are two approaches to fix a software problem that could cause this: restore the system to a date before the problem occurred, or to perform a full recovery of the system. I recommend starting with a system restore.

  This can be done by going to start and you are looking for a system restore. Open this according the results, then follow the guests ensuring you select a date where the question was not present.

  Let me know what happens.

• 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.

• 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.
