1. Activate new battery
The common practice of manufacturers is that the battery of the new notebook should have 3% power when it is turned on for the first time. At this time, the external power supply should not be used first, but the remaining power in the battery should be used up until it is turned off, and then the external power supply should be used for charging. Then the battery is exhausted and then recharged. The charging time must exceed 12 hours and be repeated three times to activate the battery.
2. Minimize the use of batteries
The number of battery charge and discharge is directly related to the life, each charge, the battery to retire a step forward. It is recommended that you use an external power supply as much as possible and remove the battery when using an external power supply. If the power supply is often plugged and unplugged multiple times a day, and the laptop is equipped with a battery, the damage to the battery is even greater. Because every time an external power supply is connected, it is equivalent to charging the battery once, and the battery will naturally live.
3. Recharge after the power is exhausted and avoid charging for too long
Regardless of whether the notebook uses lithium or nickel-hydrogen electricity, be sure to charge it after the power is exhausted (the power is less than 1%), which is the best way to avoid the memory effect. Lithium battery also has a memory effect, but its memory effect is smaller than that of nickel-hydrogen, and it will not be charged until the battery is completely/used up. Partial charging and discharging may cause the chemical properties of each cell in the battery to be inconsistent, thus the battery performance will be degraded. It is recommended to deeply discharge the battery every few months to optimize the performance of the battery. The specific method is to use battery power until the battery capacity is 0% (then the system will automatically enter the sleep or standby state, depending on the settings in the BIOS). Then connect the AC charger until it is 100 percent full. The battery has been stored for a long time, and the battery has a natural discharge process, which has been naturally discharged, which does not affect the capacity of the battery.
When charging for the first time, you should continuously charge the battery to 12 hours, and cyclically fully charge and discharge it three times (see the battery maintenance section) to fully wake up the new battery. if the battery has been stored for several months and has not been used, it is recommended to charge and discharge it completely three times. If a battery cannot be charged after 12 consecutive hours or after three cycles of charging and discharging, the battery cannot be used and needs to be replaced.
At present, notebook computers use lithium-ion batteries as their power source. For a notebook without a battery, the notebook has completely lost its own meaning, which is no different from a mobile PC. Therefore, the battery of a notebook computer is a very important component for the notebook computer.
Avoid using lithium batteries in high temperature environments, expert research, high temperature conditions will accelerate the aging process of lithium batteries, and the same do not use in extreme low temperature environments. The low temperature environment will reduce the activity of the lithium battery and reduce the life of the notebook battery. Regularly activate the lithium battery, which is fully charged and discharged to restore the maximum capacity of the lithium battery. The practice is to turn off all power management, let the notebook slowly discharge until it is completely dead, then fully charge it and repeat it two to three times. In hot weather, maintain your own laptop battery as much as possible, and make the laptop better play its role. Hope that the laptop battery will not become a troublesome part of your maintenance.
Because lithium-ion batteries have the advantages of small size, high energy density, no memory effect, high cycle life, high-voltage batteries and low self-discharge rate, most notebooks now use this battery. Here, I will explain in detail the two important components of the battery core and the protection circuit, so that everyone can have a basic understanding of the working principle of the battery, so that you can use and maintain your laptop battery correctly and make it for you Better work.

Why is the power adapter limited to safe use below 5000m?
Since the insulation medium between the conductive material and the contact is generally air, the insulation capacity of the air and the breakdown voltage of the air become an extremely important issue, including household appliances and low-voltage appliances.

Is there a difference between the power adapter and the charger? Can I switch?
Some digital products are equipped with USB chargers, which can be charged by connecting the cable to the Mini USB interface of the body, while others are equipped with power adapters, which are connected to the DC input of the body to realize power supply. Are these two things the same? Can you switch?
