• 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

• video files do not work on the rocket / battery life only half

  I can't read music on my Sansa 4 GB rocket videos. I use Sansa media converter. I want to watch videos on it but I wait like 20 to 30 minutes just to appear in the menu and see just a black screen when I try to watch it. I think a new firmware update might help. Did someone herd all the rumors when a new will be available? I really like the "rocket", but I noticed that there are a lot of bugs in the programming.                                                                                                                                Also the battery life lasts about 12 hours (assumed to be 24 hours).  I have an extended through shack radio warranty is possible that they will be able to fix this?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              Thank you for your time, Sansa65

  Not sure of your video problem, but can only talk about music? Format (WMA, Ogg, FLAC, MP3)? Bitrate? Using MP3 at 128 Kbps should give you 24 hours. If you use FLAC or (my favorite) Oggs, or a higher rate, then you are going to consume more energy. If this is not the case and that you use 128 Kbps MP3s, then load the "rocket" completely up, play music on it until it dies (don't stop it, it stop automatically when the battery is too low), then load it completely upwards without interruption (the battery icon stops flashing and disappears from the Lightning). You should not discharge/recharge the battery as it more than twice. This should recalibrate the battery (such as, to synchronize the farm while she knows exactly how responsible it is). Sometimes, when a battery test it in the factory or use over a long period of time UN-calibrates the battery.

• 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

• Satellite C660: HARD drive space shows only 20 GB of free?

  Toshiba Satellite c660 with 320 GB of disk space, it shows that 2 hard drives or 2 partitions, one called data shows only 20.6 GB of free on 148, but when I go in there I can only find at maximum approximately 50 GB even with all the backups?

  Hello

  There are more partitions on the HARD drive.
  You can see it in disk management.
  Right click on computer and select manage.
  Now you should be able to go to the disk management which will show you all the available partitions.

  A hidden partition is used for the Windows 7 backup files that are needed to fix the Windows 7 in the case where something goes wrong with the OS.
  Then, you can find a Windows partition and the other partition is used for HARD drive recovery. The point is that you are able to run the system recovery from the HARD drive without the use of the recovery disc (recover disk must be created using the recovery disc creator)

• Satellite A100-493 - short battery life

  Hei,
  I installed windows 7 on my Toshiba ' Satellite A100-493. After the installation of the battery life drops to 20 min. What can I do?

  And I read in the support that toshiba has a battery for this model Exchange program, it is now possible to change the battery?

  Welcome them
  Kalle

  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.

• Low battery life blackBerry BlackBerry Z10 Z10.

  My brand new z10 was meet some battery problems as I received it. The phone is only 4 hours old, and battery controller shows only 3 hours to 90%. Does anyone else have this problem and if so know how to fix? The unit would be defective?

  This is data synchronization, you set up the device, etc., and that "left 3 hours" is from the immediate moment, while your device is under a heavy load on the processor.

  You can not judge or accurately measure the battery life in the first 48 hours of putting in place a new mechanism, or after loading or upgrade a new OS.

• Phone and blackBerry Smartphones Low battery life goes off

  I just downloaded the new software for device for my Curve 8300 (v 4.5.0.110) and now my battery lasts only a few hours and if I'm on the phone for more than 7 or 8 minutes its starts buzzing (such as static) then the phone just stops. Is there a patch or do I uninstall it and go back to my old software. My provider is ATT

  You have the most recent of ATT, which is quite old already regarding the release builds.

  The one I linked to is from another carrier, and if you follow this link, you will be fine. Always make a backup of your BlackBerry device in the first place, using the Desktop Manager.

  Anyway,.110 release wasn't a draining battery, you use probably a few apps in the background this need to fence.

  To do this: with the BlackBerry device powered on, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to restart.

  Now load the device completely to 100% and keep an eye on the drain of the battery over the next day.

• Toshiba EXTREMELY low battery life

  Hello, I own a Toshiba Satellite L300, and when the battery is out of the adapter AC at 100% it's 20 minutes.

  Please help me solve this problem.

  == == Update

  His percentage is reduced by 1% every 10-12 seconds.

  Only advice for you are: buy the new battery.

  As far as I know that Satellite L300 is not the latest model cell phone, so I can imagine the battery is at the end of his life.

• Low battery life

  Does anyone know how to extend the battery on an iPhone 6 between charges? Lately, I get only 6 to8 hours between full charges! An application or a program is always on, such as the screen comes to life every so often. It seems I have had this problem since I updated the IOS, but this could be a coincidence, because I played with a lot of settings then to familiarize themselves with the new features. I don't necessarily want to go back to the default values, so I want to know how do I know which is constantly draining the battery.

  Hello

  I recommend to calibrate the battery first.

  The battery must be completely unloaded, then charge the battery until the battery led turn to green/blue. Then unplug the power plug and discharge the dough once more

  This procedure should be repeated several times.

  In addition, I recommend changing the settings for the central management unit for Win 7.

  Activate and set certain powers of paste options for individual devices of economy that helps extend the battery work!

• Satellite C660 - WLAN disconnect battery power

  Hello

  I have a new C660 satellite which is a great wee machine, BUT every time I have to unplug the power cable wireless loses internet connection. Wireless is fine and precise of all parameters. I checked the that changed the power settings and they are defined to be ok on battery or power.

  Please any ideas?

  Thank you
