How To Make Your Laptop Battery Last Longer On Windows 10 by mengho(m): 1:35am On Jan 20, 2017
Windows 10 operating system which was lunch recently have a lot of features which if not control very well, it might drain your battery. People usually complain about their laptop battery not lasting very long before getting depleted. Here are a few simple things you should in order to maximize your laptop battery charge on windows 10.Enable Power saving mode
This new feature on windows 10 enables you to reduce power consumption on your windows 10 powered laptop very easily. it can be activated by easily going to the

Taskbar> Battery icon> turn on power save mode

After activating this feature, you may feel a slight reduction in speed and performance but as long as you aren’t doing tasks that require large processing power e.g. Gaming, Video editing etc. you will hardly feel any difference except feeling your battery lasting a longer time than usual.

Unplug all unneeded devices

It is a very good idea to unplug devices such as external hard drive, gamepads etc. when your laptop is running on battery, especially external hard drives as they consume significant power when in used. So if you plan to use it for a long time and large data transfer, make sure your laptop is plugged into an AC outlet. Although windows 10 is very fast in data transfer, slightly more power is also consumed.

Don’t let it die

Windows 10 might be one of the most advanced systems out there but it’s better for us to take precaution. As your battery gets low the system automatically hibernates. Immediately connect your laptop to a power source when the ‘’low battery’’ notification pops up. Don’t keep using it like that as it might put significant strain on the battery thereby reducing its charging capacity.
