So today, we are going to show you seven (10) ways you can at least save your laptop battery to last at least 5 to 6 hours.
But before we explain how to save battery usage, we will consider listing what drain battery life (power).

Top laptop battery drainer: what really drains our battery life is what we need to attack in other to achieve 5 to 6 hours power stays in our laptop usage.

Here is the list of what drain battery life power(laptop):

Screen Light – I know we cannot do without screen display light (i.e. monitor) but it is 80 percentage battery drainer but I will tell you how to achieve the maximum power save options below the post.

Heavy Software
– There are some software that is much heavy, once you activate it, the fan and temprature of your laptop increases. It means that software is heavy.

Using wifi – Wifi and Bluetooth connections network drains battery especially if your laptop is not connected to power. The reasons why wifi consume power is because it access external sources.

Memory overload – Memory over load drain almost 40% battery life because once your memory is over load, it will take the power to exhibit all the files in your laptop for easy access. You can easily locate your file in your system because the file is already powered by the battery. So the more file in your system the more battery it drains.

No ventilation – When your laptop fans, the vent are not working or the vent open is close it will increases the temperature of the laptops which will drain the battery at the same time dwindle the life span of the battery . Mind you that the more the heat the weaker the battery.


Laptop Fan without regulator
– Laptop fan regulator is a recommended option software offer by the manufacturer to be choose how your fan works at a giving time. Every laptop must operate with fan depending on the weather of your country but it happen that sometimes our laptop don’t need fan – What did I mean here?. When you set the laptop fan regulator – it will know when the laptop needs the fan so leaving your fan on always drains your battery.

Using non recommended charger– please before use any charger on your system (laptop) please take a time and browse about your laptop before you purchase the charger. Assuming you lost your charger, it is been stolen or yours didn’t come with the charger please go to your window page and click property manage and use a good search engine like google, yahoo, bing etc to search for the exact laptop and its accessories like chargers.

How to get recommended charger
1.When you bought your laptop try to copy or write down your product key, processor and install ram.
2.Go to the manufacturer official site and search for the particular laptop with its accessories then select the exact recommended charger for your system .

How to make your laptop battery last 6 to 7 hours
Reduce monitor screen light
– When your laptop monitor screen light is lowered, it save 50% power drain

_ It’s reduce the temperature of the system.
_ It also make your eyes to stay healthy.
I know it looks odd but if get use to it, you will enjoy it.

Reduce memory load – Reducing memory load means that you will reduce the file and unused software file.
To reduce memory load, just buy another hard drive or disc and move all your files to the hard drive making your system free from over load.

Set fan regulation
– Set your fan regulation to increase when load is too much and reduce when load is less. Keeping your fan steady will reduce the battery power.

Don’t access external hard drive always – What do we mean by saying don’t access external drive or memory, some of the laptop users plug external memory card, hard disc or dvd plate and try to watch watching video, picture etc from external disc note– it stress the battery because it is doing another external work at the memory and hard drive .

Solve – Copy the video and paste on your system to reduce power drain.

Plug phone to laptops – many laptop user plug or charge their phones on laptops or leave phones for hours in their system
– it is not good because the battery powers both phone memory and phone memory card (external). So if you want to charge your phone in your laptop kindly select charging only – so that your external memory of your phone will not appear in laptop to save the battery.

Install Unauthorised Software – Many laptop user get corrupt file from either crack, cheat or free download software and install it in their system, sometimes the installed software works against the system leaving you with weak battery. Any unsupported software will surely work against the system so try to download from the recommended source.

Battery setting– Battery setting determine how your battery is being used.
_ Go to your battery icon,
_ click on more power option.
_ click change power setting plan.
_ click change advance power settings
Note: don’t allow your battery to low at 0 please the critical low level. You may set it to off at 9percent.
Many option as display on picture, now select your prefer options set battery, multimedia etc.

Virus: the main work of virus is to trigger un required files while the required one will be hindered. So what virus do is that it activate many files which will create more work for the system, so it stress the system fan and the battery.

Listen to your laptops : i know it sound odd but these is the best way you can save your laptop battery. Now how can you listen to your laptop, the best way to listen to your laptops is to know when the sound of the fans changes, when the temperature increase so what you will do to reduce temperature is to hold your ctrl __and delete or locate your task manager at window general and search for high consumption software and then close it.

Remove the battery - don't allow the laptop battery to stay idle while you are away. What I mean here is when you notice that you are going travel out and stay out for some weeks or monthly Make sure you remove the laptop battery from the system.
