Tips and help with maximizing your  Fujitsu Amilo Xa1526 Xa1527 Xa2528 Xa2529 battery  life

Below are suggestions and tips that can be followed to help improve and maximize the overall life of your laptop computers battery.

Full initial charge

A new laptop computer or battery should always be charged for 24-hours in its first use. After being fully charged we suggest letting the battery fully discharge and then fully charging it again. Doing this multiple times may extend the battery life even further.

Remove battery if not in use for a long period

If you're mostly using the laptop computer while it's plugged into a wall outlet keep the battery out of the computer.

If you don't plan on using your laptop for more than a month the battery should be removed from the computer, even if it's kept off.

After putting the battery back in after it hasn't been used we suggest fully charging it before letting it run off the battery again.

Fully discharge and recharge

If your battery is not a Li-ion battery it's always recommended to fully discharge and recharge your battery at least once every month.

Avoid extreme temperatures

Not only is it good for your battery but it's also for your laptop to keep it out of extreme hot or cold temperatures. For example, don't leave your laptop in your car during a hot summer day.

Clean the contacts

Try cleaning your laptop battery contacts at least once every few months. This can be done by using a cotton swab and alcohol.

People are facing the battery problem on laptops. It's also expensive to get new battery time to time. So it's better if you use these tips to help your laptop's battery power last longer.

Laptop Battery TIPS
1. Unplug external devices such as a USB mouse or an external drive. Eject the external devices like pen drive, DVD, Hard disk etc. if not in use.
2. Turn the volume level down, or mute it, if you do not plan to use it.
3. Reduce the LCD's brightness level. If you use your laptop in a well lit area or outdoors on a sunny day, try setting it at two or three bars.
4. Disable Bluetooth. If you don't use this device, you can safely disable it to avoid draining your laptop Battery.
5. Learn to single-task. PC memory that is in-use takes more power to hold data. Also, using more memory might mean using more swap or virtual memory space on your laptop's hard drive. All of this puts an additional drain on your hp laptop battery. Instead of leaving multiple applications and windows open, use only what you need at any given time. If your laptop has plenty of memory, then keep multiple applications open to avoid loading repeatedly from the hard drive. Close all the applications that run in the background on your computer like your PDA syncing software or USB hard drive backup software.
6. Run simple applications that don't use much RAM, disk drive or processing power. Need to write a letter? Use a basic text editor rather than the processor and RAM heavy Microsoft Word. Graphics heavy applications like games or movie watching are especially hard on the HP COMPAQ NC6400 Battery.
7. Avoid extreme temperatures. Batteries rely on basic chemistry and will die faster at extreme temperatures. Try to charge and use the battery at room temperatures. [1]
8. Use the power management settings on your computer that come built in. On Windows xp, click "Power Options" in your control panel. On a Mac, look for "Energy Saver" in System Preferences.

9. Switch off the wireless card if you do not plan to access your network or Internet connection. For Mac laptops, there is a button for powering on and off your wireless device is found on the toolbar at top.
10. Shut down or hibernate the laptop rather than using standby HP Pavilion dv2000 Battery, if you plan on not using it for a while. Standby continues to drain energy to keep your laptop ready to go when you open the cover.
