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.

  • 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).

  • Portege series, different on R100 and M100 battery life?

    Hello everyone,

    I want to buy a new laptop with a high mobile work autonomy. The R100 and M100 are retained, but anyone know if there are differences in the life of the battery. I tested the two NBs to my dealer, but I have no experience of working with them over a long period.

    Goodbye, Tanya-LB

    Hi Tanya,

    I had the honour to test these two laptops in our society. They are all two developed business model for great mobility and battery life. On one side you have the R100 with a Centrino ULV 900 MHz (ULV = Ultra Low Voltage) and a lithium-ion-polymer battery. This combination allows a battery life of 2 hours and with the second extra battery up to 6.4 hours.

    On the other side, you have the M100 with a LV Centrino with 1200 Mhz (LV = low voltage) and lithium-ion battery. If you need that one unloading in use battery is approximately 4.5 hours with an extra battery up to very good 8.5 hours.

    So in my opinion, these books are really well designed and complete specifications of high mobility. The M100 has the highest battery life and performance.

    If you have any questions, ask me.

    We could also see the factsheet on the Toshiba site

    I hope this will help you.

  • Tecra M2, battery life

    Got this lappy a week ago (dothan 1.6, video 512/60/64)
    All right, but I am concerned about the life of the battery of the standard package.

    Once fully charged, it shows a little less then 3 hours of work.

    Then time falls rather quickly. 90% ago 02:24
    Manufacturer and several critics claim that the battery life should be at least 4 hours.

    I reinstalled Toshiba Power Management. Then XP asked to reinstall common Modules.
    However, it did not help much.

    Can I have a broken battery or this longevity is good for this machine?

    My old laptop had a utility of calibration of the configuration of the BIOS battery.
    Is there somewhat similar? It seems that the system reads value battery incorrectly.

    To Check first, Toshiba site and Microsoft for any update of the operating system or drivers that can help.

    About the battery life, I know on older batteries, they worked as how you mentioned.

    They lists only a change of time remaining at certain times of the battery.

    For example, it can declare 100% for 30 minutes, but then drop to 50% all of a sudden.

    But this has happened on NiCad batteries because they lacked a "smart" sensor in the battery to detect small changes.

    The battery you have is a Li-ion, so this problem should not exist.

    Depending on what you were doing at the time and what power management settings you put in, this will also play a role in how fast your battery drains.

    Have the wireless on when you don't have not wireless configuration will drain more quickly the battery.

    Playing a CD / DVD, watching movies & games all drip the battery more quickly.

    Power management settings, if the value of 'Always On', it will cause the CPU to run at full speed, even on battery.

    This is a BIG drain on the battery, while leaving the brightness of the LCD on MAX.

    Check your settings, make sure that it has defined for the laptop and try to get down your glow.

    If these suggestions do not help, it is possible that you have a defective battery, if so you may want to get it replaced.

    Good luck!

  • Qosmio F60 - 14F - battery life

    Hello world!
    I read a few topics on the life of the battery, the charge of a Yes, but I've always seen a cuple of questions.
    I bought a Toshiba Qosmio F60 - 14F a month ago and I am not so happy with the battery life. When I use my computer only to write in word and without another application turn and at the level of energy Eco, lights, optical unit off... Batt live for the hour 01:50.

    I would like to know if this life is normal, if I can increase this life to 2 hours or more. I don't think due to I have read it seems that this battery life is used, so I would like to know too if there is another type of battery with more life. This is a 6cells 10.8V and 4200mAh.

    Thx a lot

    Hey,.

    If you already have a life of dough about 01:50 hours, why you want to increase to 2 hours? 01:50 is already almost 2 hours, so I think everything is ok.

    Don t forget that Qosmio is a mobile game / multimedia high-end with lots of powerful hardware. It takes more energy as usual so it s not ultra portable but, in my opinion 01:50, is already a good value for this kind of high-end hardware.

    If there is another battery you can get a provider of service authorized in your country. You should ask the guy if there is another battery.

  • Mid-2015 MacBook Pro 15 has Horrible battery life

    I have a Macbook Pro 15 mid-2015 is the basic model, 2.2 Ghz and 256 with no graphics other than the Pro of the Iris.  I got it for about 3 months and I take off the power once a weekish and use it around the House.  Whole reason I decided to go Apple was because I wanted to the battery life that windows machines cannot offer with that kind of power.

    I must have got a spleen or something because my battery life is bad.  I lance 50% screen and backlight OFF and do nothing to keep open.  My Dock has nothing open except for the mail to notify me and my browser if I use it (98% of the time).  The battery life is maximum of 4-5 hours to do this constantly, the only time where I got was more a road trip where I turned the backlight and display off and using only iTunes to listen to music through my headphones via bluetooth, it provided for 20 + hours this day here.  Just get here for the last minutes went from 38 to 19 percent more than 31 minutes of battery time.  I know a decent amount about computers and I am a saver of energy mass unless I'm hip, low light, no backlight, no program didn't open that I do not use etc and yet I get a ridiculous autonomy.

    What should I do? Any suggestions? I read somewhere on the power off and then when you power back up hold down Option + command + R to put something else inside the machine.

    My battery life is normal for what I described?  It of not like I'm that fool who knows nothing about computers and leaves open pages, mail, messages, itunes, Skype and browser just because I can.  I leave nothing open (so no programs on the platform were the 'point' under them), erasing everything that isn't necessary VIA activity monitor, such things as creative cloud.  I'm just puzzled.  I must have got a dud.  Please help and advise me on what I should / test.

    Running OS X El Capitan 10.11.3, but it's not just because of El Capitan, this has been like that since Yosemite when I bought first.

    Thank you

    Your computer is still under warranty, so do the logical thing: make an appointment at the Apple Store - Genius Bar store and bring it into service. If you are in the United States or is unable to make an appointment in this way, contact your Apple store. Don't forget that you have free phone service for 90 days after purchase.

    is it possible to show the life of the battery in percent and in hours and minutes in the taskbar? (Windows 7 64-bit)

  • Battery charging - effect on the battery life

    So, the battery life is not initially as low as feared but rarely fits a model of exactly 24/48 hours, so I often need to recharge the battery.

    Formerly, it was bad for the batteries, but my question is - are there - there no damage to the battery caused by the overflow of the load for 30-60 minutes when it's convenient?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Dave

    The battery won't suffer regular refills made wrong, regardless of the level of load when the load begins. Apple Watch uses Lithium-ion batteries, which can be charged whenever you want. There is no need to let the battery discharge completely before recharging.

    You can find more convenient to charge your watch from one day to the next. In normal operation, Apple Watch cannot be overloaded, and the battery won't suffer harm of regular refills done every day. Load stops automatically when the watch is fully charged (and again as / when required due to the use of the current battery). Follow Apple's safety and handling instructions, and note also that:

    -It is not possible to turn the watch off the coast while it is on the charger and connected to the power supply - what is normal.

    -It is also normal to watch, adapter sector and charger become hot when it is connected to the power.

  • I have improved my battery life of Lenovo K3 score of 50% more with Greenify!

    Hi friends,

    I have improved my battery life of Lenovo K3 score of 50% more with Greenify! It works really well. You can try it via the game shop. Don't forget to give your comments once you have started using it.

    Greenify essentially stops (or strength stoppages) background running applications in an automatic way. Also, there is option to greenify or exclude some applications that you do not want to stop in the background. I recommend it to all android users.

    Lenovo K3 note no need any permission to root for her. Go ahead & try it. Please share your experience with me.

    Click below to install it directly on Play store:

    https://play.Google.com/store/apps/details?ID=com.oasisfeng.greenify&hl=en

    But once your application is running in the background that he keeps automatically unless you lock the phone. I mean, on the basis of the request, can you greenify apps. Manager app does allow you even to the popup once notifications that you added list turn off background. Greenify App, you can still access them from notification, I mean that it will automatically stops all applications when they are not in use.

    It is a clever way... good?

  • HP ENVY x 360-m6-w103dx (ENER: battery life)

    I want to know what what is the normal battery time of the HP ENVY x 360-m6-w103dx (ENERGY STAR) at full capacity.

    Audio = running in background

    = Buffering a video on the internet

    = Download of origin, steam, IDM data at the same time

    = Play a game on the average result

    My laptop don't survive for 2 hours, when the above items are open. I just want to know is my laptop gives me good battery life? I think my battery is little damaged because when I bought it, I did not wait so that he can be fully charged. I disconnected the power cable and started using it.

    I do the test battery or something like that for the health of my battery!

    With everything what's happening 2 hours is probably not too bad. You did not damage the battery by the way you used it. Lithium-ion batteries do not require the kind of special treatment that many people still think needs batteries to laptop, from previous types of batteries not sold in the past 20 years. The x 360 has provoked much criticism as his real self, as HP announced very long service life, up to 12 hours. People become somewhere between 2 and 5 hours based on only a sample of people who are unfortunate enough to be able to post here. You have a battery of test utility built into the laptop, if you press F2, you put into the diagnostic screen. Run diagnostic and post back with the results.

    If you want to get optimal autonomy must primarily turn down the brightness of the screen, but also avoid opening multiple windows and anything intensive graphics. You do everything possible to shorten the duration of the battery.

  • How to maximize battery life battery on Satellite A200

    Hi all!

    I just bought a laptop satellite A200. Could someone tell me how to maximize my battery life?
    I already had my first charge 2 hours after a total of battery drain, however, my battery fail to maintain another couple of hours.
    I do something basic like navigation and using the media player of saved files and I don't use my dvd readers yet and do not lend themselves its operations.
    Please advice.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    What to say dude battery working time depends on the use of the laptop and on the performance of the battery.
    I put t know what exactly the battery delivered with this laptop, but as far as I know it s a common standard battery. If you want to use the laptop much more time, I advise you to buy the stronger battery; for example, with 6000-8000mAh with Adapter Cable.

    By the way; You can configure the use of battery power in Vista power options.
    If you wish, you can create a new configuration of the plant to get the best performance from the battery.
