Laptop Battery's Maintain Tips, How to Prolong the Laptop Battery's Life - Part One

All of the laptop manufacturers are working on developing more powerful, steady laptop computers, and in the design of the hardwares become more easy to use, but for a expensive laptop computer, people always ignore the battery's performance and using until the laptop battery have some problems. In fact, the laptop battery's using is need to take more care about, some good habit may help you to save money to buy a new battery, after all the battery's price is still costly, occupy about 10%-15% of a laptop, and it's consumer goods.

The laptop battery's category and material
there are four categories of laptop battery: 1.Ni-Cd, 2.Ni-MH, 3.Li-ion, 4.fuel(AFC,PAFC,MCFC,SOFC,PEMFC,etc.)

Let's take a look of these 4 categories:

1.Ni-Cd
The old laptop battery are using Ni-Cd, becauese of the technology, there are many disadvantage of the Ni-Cd batteries. take many roomage, weight, low capacity, short life, memory effect..., it's little to using in the laptop battery now.

2.Ni-MH
Ni-MH battery is most environmental protection of this four types. But in the weight, capacity, memory effect it's not as good as Li-ion battery.

3.Li
Li-ion battery have many excellence than other batteries.high working voltage, little, high Capacity, charge up safe and speediness,wide range of the temperature, little memory effect, no environment contaminated.But the Li-ion battery still have some deficiency, it's expensive and charge time limit(most of the Li-ion battery have 400 - 600 times to charge, some good have 800times ).

4.fuel
It's a chemistry battery, and so expensive, we can't see many of the fuel battery in the market, so we don't introduce this one.
