Tips for using laptops that are essential to your laptop

First, we asked a dealer who has been selling laptops for a long time and got the following answer:

Q: Do I need to activate a new laptop?

A: You need to activate it once or twice. It is best to activate it for more than 10 hours each time;

Q: How can I charge correctly? Some people say that it is better to automatically shut down and recharge each time the machine is used. Some people say that you don't have to pay attention to it. You can do it at any time.

A: It doesn't matter. You just need it at any time.

Q: Many people unplug the battery to save battery loss when using an external power supply. Is this practice promoted?

A: Yes. We advocate this.

Editor's summary: From this dealer's mouth, we can see that he advocates every time he guides the consumer to buy a new laptop, to activate the battery; the lithium battery has no memory effect, so it can be charged at any time; often use external power laptop, it is best to unplug the battery.

Next, let's hear from a laptop lithium battery engineer.

Q: Do I need to activate a new laptop?

A: No, because the battery of the notebook is activated at the factory, as long as it is used properly;

Q: How can I charge correctly? Some people say that it is better to automatically shut down and recharge each time the machine is used. Some people say that you don't have to pay attention to it. You can do it at any time.

A: always. It is better to automatically shut down the machine and charge again each time it is used, so that each charge and discharge is fully utilized, and the battery life is long. For the same five hundred times, "charge at any time" may be used up for 500 times a year, and "automatically shut down and recharge each time the machine is used" only takes 200 or 300 times. Naturally, the latter is better.

Q: If it is fully charged, it will be stopped because of power failure. After that, fill it up. Is this a charge or two times?

A: twice.

Q: Is this a so-called "Memory Effect?

A: The lithium battery has no memory effect.

Q: Many people unplug the battery to save battery loss when using an external power supply. Is this practice promoted?

A: Yes. We recommend that you avoid power loss from external power to Built-in power.

Editor's note: from the engineer's answer, he advocates that the new laptop does not need to activate the battery for a long time. to prolong the battery life of the notebook, it is best to re-charge the battery every time the battery is consumed; if the external power is often used in the notebook, it is best to take the battery down.

Finally, the friend we interviewed was a local player who had been practicing the course for many years. He had many unique insights on the laptop technology to see how he answered these questions:

Q: Do we need to activate a new laptop?

A: No, because the batteries of those laptops are activated at the factory;

Q: How can I charge correctly? Some people say that it is better to automatically shut down and recharge each time the machine is used. Some people say that you don't have to pay attention to it. You can do it at any time.

A: You don't have to pay attention to it. Generally, the charge is stopped when it is higher than 100%, and the charge is charged only when it is lower than 95%. This technology is not limited to IBM battery, because the power management chip is almtl product, and current battery manufacturers basically use this solution. Of course, I can't guarantee the batteries of some super cheap laptops.

Q: If it is fully charged, it will be stopped because of power failure. After that, fill it up. Is this a charge or two times?

A: twice.

Q: Many people unplug the battery to save battery loss when using an external power supply. Is this practice promoted?

A: No need to remove the battery. The battery has a built-in anti-over-charge protection circuit. When the battery power is fully filled, it will not cause loss to the battery. Secondly, if the battery is removed and suddenly loses power, will cause bad images to the notebook itself.

Editor's note: this player advocates that the new laptop does not need to activate the battery for a long time. to prolong the service life of the notebook battery, it is best to re-charge the battery after the battery is consumed each time; the laptop is often used for external power supply. To protect the notebook, it is best not to remove the battery.

From the above words about the laptop dealer, the laptop battery engineer, and the current player, you must understand how to treat your current battery. According to the data, the new battery activation has been completed before the factory, the new laptop battery with a little power to avoid the damage caused by natural losses to the battery, there is no need to listen to what dealers say, "It takes more than 10 hours to activate.

The lithium battery life of the laptop is limited, generally after 300 ~ After 500 times of repeated charging, it will not be filled in. Therefore, according to the information we currently have, we can see that in order to maintain the "maximum life" of the electric pool, we should try to use up the electricity and recharge it. However, I would like to remind everyone that we need to buy a notebook to turn it into a weapon for their own work and study. It is difficult for you to care for it all day long?

For the third controversy, we still hold that when using an external power supply, do not unplug the battery. From the lithium battery point of view, because the lithium battery has a certain limit on the number of times of charging, so it is removed from the notebook, it can still prolong the battery life. However, this method is quite dangerous for the laptop itself. If a sudden power failure occurs, it will affect the notebook itself due to current and other reasons. Like some large manufacturers, ThinkPad has built-in Special battery protection technology, which can be charged only when the battery power is less than 95%.
