Satellite U405 - what is the best way to battery life increases

Hello world!

I searched for it a little and everything I could find are contradictory answers and some confusing instructions... :)
Even the PDF for my U405 has some conflicting advice (it is recommended to completely discharge or not?)

I'm trying not to remove it and store it with a charge of 40% in a situation of low temperature (?) because I also trust him as a UPS (power cuts are common to sleep).

So, in short, what is the best way to prolong my life from the battery to its maximum? Should I fully discharge once a month or only to half way through? Should he ever be completely loaded, or which is actually a good thing?

Thanks in advance for any wisdom that anyone can offer on that!

David

The best way would be to put it out of the laptop, but you already said, you don't do that.
So I say to completely discharge the battery from time to time and load it to the maximum.

That's all I can tell you right now, but don't know how much it will increase the battery life.

  • Satellite U200: What's the best way to use a battery?

    Sorry to ask a stupid question but the U200 is my first laptop ever. OK, I already did what most PC magazines will tell you, that is to say completely charge the battery then run until the process of vacuum and then repeat two or three times, it's supposed to get all the cells in the battery operation.

    Now, what is the best thing to do, exercise like that or do I have to wait until the battery is half empty or so & then connect the charger?
    I think that it is not good to run the laptop with a full battery & charger connected, until guy do you say when you want to use your laptop for 6 hours or more?

    Hello

    > believe that it is not good to run the laptop with a full battery & charger permanently connected.

    Well, the new generation of portable and battery allows to use the battery and the power adapter at the same time.
    There are no bad effect memory with batteries at the beginning!

    So my laptop is connected to the power supply and the battery is still connected.
    It has no negative influence on the performance of the battery. But you should know that there is a limit of battery charge.
    After that all 500times completely procedures of load and discharge, the battery will slowly discharge performance. This is nothing unusual.

    PS: Note: in the instructions you will find useful tips and information about how to manage the battery!

    Hi there everyone,

    I hope you are all good, I kindly need to know what is the best way by which we can extend the battery from our PC, I had a friend who apparently frustrated because his laptop battery is almost dead then that PC disconnected electricity; It gives him only five minutes and the beep starts.

    I think she always used his laptop plugged into the electricity, not frequent unloading / loading the battery and yet, I really appreciate it if you guys out there (blessed) could help me maintain my and his of (she bought a new battery lol) batteries.

    Note: My Satellite A200 - 1 M 5 gives me 2.45 minutes after 4 months and I'm happy with that, I turn on my laptop disconnected to power (releases) often, but I feel that I can't explain or help others to look after your laptop battery.
    Thanks a million in advance

    Why we can not find the information seen on the Toshiba site maintenance?
    Maybe we didn't get!

    Hello

    I think you're right research you didn t on the Toshiba page quite long ;)

    I have consulted the European Toshiba support page and selected in the troubleshooting category option-> Solutions to common problems.

    There I found the battery category, and then I found this article:

    * + How to configure my computer for optimal use of battery? + *
    http://www.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD5400Z60005R01.htm

    It looks like an old FAQ document in any case the fact is that all batteries lose own performance after several times several years ago, it is advisable to remove the battery from the laptop to extend the battery life. This is not necessary with the new battery and generation of laptops.

    However, many people remove the battery if the laptop works on sector (power adapter connected) This prevents the battery of standing of the charge and discharge.

  • What is the best way to buy an iPhone Unlocked 7?

    Hi all

    I am currently using T-Mobile and want to get the new iPhone 7. Since there is no option for a sim-free iPhone, what is the best way to buy the new iPhone? Should I get the T-Mobile one full fare? I know that he will be released version but it will come with a T-Mobile sim so what will do with the sim card? Put it away or give it to T-Mobile? Or should I wait for the version without card sim to appear, which I don't think that will come out until November, and I don't want to wait that long.

    Thank you in advance.

    If you do not want to wait to pay full price for the model from T-Mobile.  You can do whatever you want with the SIM card.

    Archive messages or move them to some other local mailboxes or mailboxes on the server. Don't know what you are trying to do because it appears that you have 2/3 of your hard disk.

    Why do you think archiving emails in 2 places? Where are you trying to save space to?

  • What is the best way to retrieve deleted mp3 files? I am running OSX Leopard 10.5.8 on a PowerPC G5 tower. I'll be very grateful for any help in this matter. Thanks to Chris

    Hello

    What is the best way to retrieve deleted mp3 files? I had a lapse of attention and I deleted a folder containing most of my music files. It is for the most part, the mp3 but there was regular audio files and some wav files in there also. I am running OSX Leopard 10.5.8 on a PowerPC G5 tower. I have another PPC machine to help the recovery, if I need, but at the moment, he is not appearing on my network (3 computers). I'm trying to change this soon. I'll be really grateful for any help in this matter.

    Thanks to Chris

    If you emptied the Recycle Bin after you move the folder to the trash, and you don't have a time Machine or another backup, then it is lost, sorry.

    y at - it an app that manages the apps?  should I delete and re-download a few apps later?

    I would like to take advantage of many more applications that I believe I have space for.

    You can see how much storage resumes via the settings app > general > Manage Storage - this screen lists each app space (the application and its content), total by selecting an app on this screen should tell you how much space the application content (files, documents, etc.) resumes.

    No, iOS is a sandbox environment, apps can control or manage other applications.

    Depends on the app. deletion of an app will also delete its content, if it is an application where its content is important (such as documents), and that content is not stored elsewhere (e.g.)  Dropbox or cloud server), you may lose this content by deleting the app.

    Before you sell or give away your computer, and more the steps listed in this article to support, please follow these steps:

    1. run the Diagnostics from Apple or the Apple Hardware Test. The buyer will do (or it should), and you won't be surprised by the results.

    2. reset the PRAM and the SMC, which may contain personal information.

    3. If you set a firmware password, remove it by running the utility in recovery mode firmware password.

    4. If you turn on FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, turn it off.

    5. If you use Boot Camp, the partition must be deleted.

    6. If you have created another partition of data on internal disk, remove them in disk utility.

    7. If the machine has an internal hard drive, erase the remaining data partition with the possibility of putting the data to zero. An SSD has no need to be set to zero.

    8. remove the machine from your list of registered products. If it is still covered by an AppleCare Protection Plan, transfer the warranty to the new owner as described in the terms and Conditions AppleCare (under the heading "Transfer of Plan.")

    Note also:

    You can legally or transfer almost any software downloaded from the Mac App Store to the new owner of the machine, even if it was free. This includes OS X, so if you've switched to OS X 10.7 or later, you need to reinstall an operating system older, either from the installation media, if any, or by commissioning in recovery mode of the Internet (option-command-R start ringing.)

    The new owner will have to re-download everything software that came on the App Store, as appropriate, including updates of OS X, under her Apple ID. If you never updated applications bundled iLife (iPhoto, iMovie and Garage Band) through the App Store, you can not transfer these either. The buyer must buy them. Note that iPhoto has been suspended and is no longer available for purchase.
