What to do with sucking out batteries?

Many know the problem is that the notebook battery, unfortunately far too quickly loses its effectiveness. But why is this phenomenon and what can I do about it?

The biggest mistake you commit to the notebook user that does not complete loading and unloading of batteries. Here, the partial discharge cause formation of a slag within the Dell Inspiron 1525 battery and causes these scorified sections are no longer usable. Since the battery is often invited back, although this has still draws capacity is not fully charging cycles. Each battery survives only a certain number of charging cycles, which should be fully exploited due to this.

Another, often underestimated factor is the weather. Especially Notebook Batteries are very temperature sensitive and therefore should never be exposed to high or low temperatures. You should put the DELL Latitude D820 Battery in the summer, therefore, never in the sun and protect it from cold in winter influences, so do not leave the car or put on the windowsill.

Furthermore, the user should remove the laptop battery power during continuous operation of the device. The reason for this is that the battery even when not in use, absorbs heat from the notebook, which will also adversely impact the battery life. It should here be noted, however, according to various notebook manufacturers still believe the DELL Inspiron 1300 battery has a charge in front of the removal of approximately 40%.
All these preventive measures are very helpful in their attention, you give the battery a longer life. But what if the battery has already lost its power?

Once the capacity is gone lost, it is very difficult to resuscitate the battery. Suggestions go here by short-circuiting of the battery by over discharging lightbulb to the use of professional chargers.
By the method of short-circuiting I would advise any user, because first of all warranty claims in this case falls on the device and secondly, there is danger of explosion.

The discharging of the battery at the light bulb is a little older but apparently working his way back to breathe some life battery. By repeatedly loading and unloading of the Dell Inspiron 6400 AC Adapter with a light bulb and can be reached that the scorified areas can be used under circumstances again. There is no guarantee it is not here, however, the effectiveness of this method varies from model to model.

The safest but also most complicated and most expensive method is to use a professional charger. These, however, in most cases very expensive and also quite bulky. With this device you can easily complete the battery load and unload. The carrying of such a device is impractical.

If the Dell Vostro 1520 battery is too late to save one only one option: A new battery must be her. Inquired about the prices here are falling down one's jaw quickly, because this may affect crack 200 € mark. There are Resellers for counterfeit laptop batteries, Which can sweeten the purchase of a new battery a bit. In my eyes is the most useful for the extensive use of the direct purchase of a laptop replacement DELL Latitude D620 battery. So one is always used appropriately in the situation and its battery in case of failure also well prepared. Watch it before buying a notebook that is a Lithium-Ion Battery features, the memory is completely negligible effect, because these models can not fall victim to him.

Battery Information

At GRS You will find a large selection of batteries for all popular notebooks. We only supply high quality Notebook BatteriesBecause we know that our customers expect from us the best possible quality. Therefore we do not use cheap batteries that can overheat and catch fire in this or even explode. In addition, our HP Pavilion dv6000 Battery are stored under optimal conditions, so you always get a perfect product. At GRS You always get fresh ones, not older than three months, the since manufacture.

After the battery has arrived for you, it however depends on you whether you can use your laptop battery is only a few months or several years. Therefore, we give you at this point important information and care tips for your notebook battery, so you enjoy it as long as possible.

Use your laptop battery is only intended

For a long life of your DELL XPS M1530 battery they should use it only as intended, ie only as energy storage for your notebook.

If you use your notebook batteries only as intended, you have already done a lot for a long life. But you can do even more:

1st When you purchase that you get fresh batteries. Batteries that have been lying for several months when stock traders can not develop their full potential. At GRS You always get fresh batteries, as we regularly buy new batteries and they do not unnecessarily place.

2nd Immediately after purchase you should fully charge the battery. Then use the notebook until it turns itself on in standby mode. Only then should you recharge the battery. Repeat this procedure 3-4 times after this “training” your battery then has the full capability.

3rd If you use your laptop battery is not or only rarely, mainly because you use the notebook as a replacement for a desktop workstation, remove the battery until you need it again. So you save your Dell Vostro 1520 battery. The battery should have before you remove a cargo capacity of 60-70%. As the battery discharges over time by yourself, make him at least every 2-3 months replace it in your notebook. If your battery is not charged for several months, there is a so-called discharge. This means that your laptop battery can no longer be charged and it is thus destroyed forever.

4th If you regularly use your notebook on battery, you should discharge the battery completely every 2-3 weeks. They simply work with your laptop until it itself into standby mode on and load until the battery again.

5th When the power in your DELL Inspiron 1300 battery after 1-2 years in spite of careful nursing, you should unload him 2-3 times in a row and load again. So fresh it again on something. The original performance, but you can also use it to restore only a part.

6th Batteries do not have unlimited life time. If you notice after 3-4 years that the power is only 50% of the original term, you should dispose of your laptop battery properly and buy a new battery. GRSis available both at the disposal as well as buying new partner. Talk to us on it.

Avoid especially the following::

- Contact with open fire

This could lead to an explosion that not only their Dell Inspiron 1501 battery would be destroyed, but even you can suffer physical damage.

- Do not take apart the notebook battery

When opening the alkaline batteries can leak or other electrolytic substance. This may be your battery useless.

- Avoid short circuit of notebook batteries

If you connect the two contacts on your notebook batteries by a metallic object with each other, there may be a short circuit that not only destroys its battery, but can also lead to injuries.

- Avoid damage to the notebook batteries

Do not hit with a hammer or other object on your Dell Inspiron 6400 battery. Do not drive nails or other sharp objects into the battery.

- Avoid very high or very low temperatures

Do not allow your laptop battery is exposed to prolonged high or very low temperatures. The ambient temperature should be between 5 and 35 ° Celsius. In order to avoid high temperatures that can damage your Dell Inspiron 1525 battery beyond repair, you should not expose them to direct sunlight and store even longer periods in the car when you should expect high temperatures.

- Notebook battery can not fall

Do not drop your laptop battery or dispose of it not.

Tips for lithium batteries

Lithium cells enjoy a good reputation in the same capacity, they are only half the weight of nickel batteries and less demanding to maintain, because they do not suffer from memory effect. Unfortunately, by the lithium technology holds only 300 to 500 charge cycles, it is also up to five times more expensive than the nickel equivalent.

Battery life extended by firmware update
For portable products will come onto the market, the device turns off too quickly, and it is not the entire battery capacity. For example, should the 3.6-volt lithium battery in the phone at about 3.0 volts discharged - until it is empty. Turns the mobile phone but already at 3.3 volts from left, about 30 percent of unused capacity remaining in the Dell Inspiron 1520 battery.

Your device turns off much earlier than in the technical data indicated the problem may continue a firmware update that prevents a premature shutdown. Almost all manufacturers of mobile phones, PDAs, laptops and digital cameras offer such updates on the Internet for download.

Store unused lithium batteries properly
When a lithium Dell Inspiron 1545 battery for several weeks or months are not used, it must be stored properly, otherwise it will break down. Be careful before mothballing the fact that the current donor is loaded about half full - if the charge indicator of cell phones and laptops under load show (during a call or writing to disk) about 40 to 50 percent. This will prevent that the DELL XPS M1530 battery is deeply discharged during the long storage. Then remove the battery pack from the device and store it at 15 to 18 degrees Celsius (for example, in the basement), so make sure that the chemical processes between lithium and electrolyte-electrode run as slowly as possible. Before you put the battery back in operation, you load it in the device completely.

Found for notebook operation on battery power grid
The life expectancy of a lithium Dell Inspiron 6400 battery is at room temperature for about three years - no matter whether it is needed or not. The reason: lithium electrode and electrolyte to eat slowly with time. This reduces the effective area of ??the electrode, the resistance grows, and breaks down at high current load, the battery voltage - the result: The power turns off after a few minutes of operation.

The Notebook is produced by the compact construction and inadequate ventilation lot of heat, which heats the Dell Inspiron 1525 battery up to 50 degrees. Heat accelerates the decomposition process, and the current donors are earlier than expected on the mind. Lithium batteries lose after six months, about one-third of capacity, when stored at 50 degrees - one year after leaving just the left half. If you operate the notebook often to AC power, remove the battery, so it stays cool, is not loaded and constantly lives up to twice as long.

Lead-acid battery

The lead-acid battery is a lead-lead oxide system, which is also known under the designation of lead-acid battery. These batteries are available in many different designs and shapes. Essentially, a distinction is open and dense gas systems.
Lead-acid cells are discharged per day at about 1%. For this reason, lead-acid Dell Inspiron 1525 battery are immersed after 6 years of operation in the professional / commercial sector. Thereafter, a trouble-free operation can not be guaranteed.

Construction

The lead-acid DELL XPS M1530 battery is a cell-tight container. The positive electrode plate consists of lead oxide (PbO 2). The negative electrode plate of metallic lead. They are separated by a separator made of glass fiber, glass microspheres or PVC. The electrolyte is a sulfuric acid.
Charging method

As the charging process the I / U method is used. Here, the lead-up to the desired cell voltage with constant current charging. Thereafter, a constant voltage charge.
Application

Lead-acid Dell Inspiron 1545 battery are used everywhere where high current carrying capacity is required (alarm systems). It must be noted that lead-acid DELL Studio 1537 battery have a very heavy weight. They are therefore not suitable for mobile use. They are usually housed in a sturdy stand-metal housing.

* UPS
* Electric Vehicles
* Energy storage

The circuit used to monitor the charge state of a lead-acid batteries. Depending on the charge varies between the Dell Inspiron 1520 battery voltage is 11V and 14V. If the battery voltage drops below 11.8 V the LED lights.
The LED lights up to 3V battery voltage is sufficiently bright!

Battery-Virus on Dell notebooks

Computer viruses, which infiltrate from the Internet or from storage media to the hard disk are still from the old school. New viruses are battery-faced now warns an expert. On control chips from batteries to Dell notebooks and destroy viruses, hackers could infiltrate the battery. While the experts not managed to bring the Dell Inspiron 1545 battery to explode. But at least make the energy storage device unusable.

Las Vegas is the end of July a meeting of IT security experts and even now, experts will present a taste of their findings. Particular attention was security researcher Charlie Miller of Accuvant: He brought DELL Studio 1537 battery to destroy itself. The researchers looked in particular for security vulnerabilities in Dell's operating system Mac OS X and found a vulnerability in the control chip of the DELL Latitude D620 battery.

It has enabled the IT security experts to reprogram the software of the control chip of laptop batteries and in turn the energy storage device unusable., Heise.de reported. Also a revival of the DELL XPS M1330 battery is no longer been possible, reports The Register.

The expert warns of a threat, the slumber of the incomplete control chip in Dell Inspiron 6400 battery: A battery-reprogrammable chip could also be played by viruses, other malicious software to play on the computer hard drive. At worst, the anti-virus software being circumvented - even a clean install then bring no relief because the malware from the battery-chip will be played out again and again.

After his presentation at the Black Hat conference announced the expert Remedy: Miller wants to publish a utility. It is intended to change the default password of battery chips and thus make it difficult manipulations.

Notebook battery – how long to keep alive?

And I got to thinking, as I, the battery life of the unit over the years may receive as well.

From my sister I know that you can blow up the battery and its performance quite quickly – just keeps charging the Dell Inspiron 6400 battery of the laptop, even if he is not really empty (also at 90%). So almost always leave the battery in it, even if the device is a long time on the net.
So they did with their first unit, the unit’s reaction: within the shortest time decreased the battery life per battery charged (100%) dramatically, from about 3-4 hours were 1.5. The same I believe I have recognized in my old Casio digital camera. Also there is the concept of memory effect, which should be eliminated even by modern batteries. But something like that then it’s got to be even with the modern battery when the described phenomenon can be observed.

So, I thought to myself, but I do it differently: If the laptop is attached to the mains, the DELL XPS M1330 battery is removed at the same time – unless this is actually empty and should be charged for an extended mobile use.

I also informed only on advice of an acquaintance, a charge the Dell Inspiron 1720 battery on the Internet. Here it is, this survives to 500 charging cycles (one cycle is therefore the charge load from 0 to 100%), only then he loses noticeably in performance.

So, unpacked so the other night at my friend the laptop battery out, as a network operation was planned – and already I’m looked at from this angle: “What should I bring”, he asks me. My reasoning was as described above. However, he said, “had 500 charge cycles much as from 0 to 100″ “is” settled, and “I could safely leave the battery in the device.” Moreover, “the battery from 100% anyway would not be charged if the same device on the network,” which I believe, however, not entirely accurate. And also “the contacts of the battery faster so the mind would give up when the battery power itself.”

Now my two questions to the whole subject:

1st Am I right when I remove the Dell Studio 1735 battery if it is not just empty and will hang the device over a longer time on the network?

2nd Is really no energy / power / … drawn from the battery when it is fully charged at 100%, that is? Here I was thinking that it is possible without problems to pull the plug, the laptop now runs automatically continue at the expense of the Dell Studio 1555 battery. Is such a sudden change, without ever at least a fraction of the battery is used, does it make?

How did you handle your laptop and the battery? Do you have similar experiences?

Battery Care for Notetbooks

Notebooks or netbooks are equipped with lithium-ion batteries (or Li-ion polymer cells) for mobile power supply. Due to the limited capacity of the typically included 3-cell DELL XPS M1330 battery, many users operate the device, whenever possible, on the power grid. In my books I give to the tip, when operating on battery power supply decoupling in order to achieve its optimum life.

But there are people who argue that this measure is "nonsense" is. So I've decided to publish this blog post for something "light on" to bring and explain the reasons for my optimization proposal.

Why grow old batteries?

Lithium-ion technology (also applies to Li-polymer battery)-based batteries are subject to cell aging. The manufacturers claim that Li-ion batteries to reach between 500-1000 charge cycles. Then the DELL XPS M1530 battery capacity has dropped so far is that a meaningful operation is no longer possible.

Behind it is the effect of cell aging. Specifically, it is a cell oxidation, losing in the electrodes of the cell's ability to store lithium-ion. As a result, the internal resistance and the capacitance of the cell decreases.

Optimal conditions for cell oxidation have high temperatures and charge states above escalation of 90 to 95 percent of the cell capacity

What can I do, what should I avoid?

To achieve the number of possible charging and also to ensure a long lifetime for the DELL Studio 1537 battery, any user can contribute a lot with a few small precautions. Lasch said it is important to avoid the above "optimal conditions for cell aging", if possible. Here are some tips on battery care:

* The battery should never be exposed to high temperatures (eg, netbook or battery on the back shelf of the car in the blazing sun, filing on a sunlit window sill or the heater). High temperatures accelerate the aging of cells.
* Make sure the Dell Inspiron 1720 battery operation of this netbook that this allows is always discharged before charging starts at the next grid. This means that the allowable number of loading operations will be extended to as long as possible.

The last point can significantly contribute to life extension. Who is constantly changing between battery and AC operation, provoking frequent part load operations.

When operating on AC power then it comes to two negative effects: one developed any more working on netbook heat, making the battery is exposed to elevated temperatures. Second, the operation causes the power supply, the electrical charging system checks the Dell Vostro 1520 battery charge status and those with partial discharge fully charging again. It is always "partial load operation" as a charge cycle. In addition, when charging the last 5 to 10 percent of the battery via a controller, the charging voltage. Although the batteries have an internal protection circuit that prevents an "overload" of the cells. But the aging of cells at high charging voltages falls away very quickly.

Optimally, it is therefore to ensure the battery that the cells are discharged as completely as possible. Then the HP Pavilion DV5 Battery is fully recharge via the charger. This allows the 1000 charge cycles and the battery life of 3 to 5 years to expand (depending on how often the full charge cycles performed).

Tip: So if you operate a netbook mainly to AC power, it is advisable to extend the battery for these periods and then in a cool place.

Caution: You have to keep in this case the "total discharge" the battery in the eye. Even a Dell Studio 1735 battery is discharged slowly withdrawn from storage. The cell voltage drops thereby continuously. The cell voltage falls below a critical value, one speaks of total discharge. When it comes to total discharge copper deposits on the electrodes, which can lead to short circuits. The manufacturers of these cells therefore provided with a protection circuit that separates the cells of the definitive external connections, once the cell voltage is decreased by self-discharge below a critical threshold.

In practice, it is advisable to recharge the battery every 20 days on the charger to a capacity of about 70 percent and then to bring the battery back to the cool storage location.

I would refer interested readers to two sites, which contain more detailed information.

Just call me Nazi battery but not fanboy, maybe a dreamer!

The battery issue seems like a red thread to pull through this day and not just since this morning. Schonmal tried an electric toothbrush to brush your teeth if that does not work because not electrically charged Dell Inspiron 1720 battery? I mean it goes, but it's nowhere near as good as with a non-electric toothbrush brush his teeth unless the electrical work.

Anyway, I am now almost 2 years since the proud owner of a MacBook's. No problem, although it is a pro. It is a unibody Macbook Late 2008th One of these devices look like a Macbook Pro but none are because they still have a replaceable Dell Inspiron 1520 battery.

The decision not to change the time on a pro has emerged in recent days than good ones. For as old as the Macbook is as old is the DELL XPS M1530 battery. This also worked quite well and certainly only because of the good treatment which he learned with me and the reason why I Christian frequently been described as a Nazi battery. Because I refused and refuse to strictly barely half-full or empty Dell Inspiron 1525 battery to charge. I let the Macbook in 90% of all cases go first on its own, long after the "you work with an empty battery, please connect an AC adapter to" warning.

As a result of the Dell Inspiron 6400 battery after about 857 charge cycles still had 94% capacity. A respectable result if not since yesterday the electronics to the battery with the Macbook can communicate capitulated and went into the show off retirement.
