To work, shopper online or just relax on Netflix over the weekend, our computer is constantly solicited. To make the battery last and avoid damaging it, we put into practice some good tips and simple gestures.

How to avoid overheating?

First thing to know, our electronic devices hate the heat, be it our computer, or even our smartphone. For this reason, one does not leave its computer in the sun and one does not connect it either continuously because the heat deteriorates the components. That said, unlike old Cadium batteries, the new Lithium batteries are not afraid to stay plugged in even when they are 100% recharged, and there is no need to wait until they are completely flat and plugged into the mains. Generally, they support about 500 charges / discharges.

I relieve the battery from time to time

To conserve the life of our battery at best, we recharge our computer when it is off . And if you want to use it on mains, you plug it in before you even turn it on: otherwise, the battery will be solicited and will be used anyway. Small trick, this board also valid for smartphones ...

Regular use is preferred

Even if our battery displays 100%, if it is not used, it will empty all the same. And if we do not need it for a few days, we recharge it anyway, because if it stays too long flat, it tends to get damaged.
