First we must note that it is a laput battery It is not a permanent thing, because it experiences some constipation as time goes by and it slowly decreases. All batteries have a certain number of charging cycles that they support, and their durability is affected by external factors such as heat. Usually, we will start to notice the first signs that the battery is not working as it should from a year and a half of use.
The remaining battery life is a predictor
Before we go to the tips to solve this problem, it should be clear that the remaining battery life on the laptop is a predictor made by the operating system depending on the system. battery profile our design and use we offer to the team. And of course, as a good guess it is not accurate, though is
The problem comes when we realize that, even when using a laptop is always the same, the remaining battery will vary dramatically. For example, the sign is that from the remaining 60%, all of a sudden start to drop at a shocking rate, or that if it still has 15-20%, laptop is turned off because it ran out of battery even though according to the operating system we had a charge for some time.
That said, we go there with advice.
Calculate the battery of the laptop
The best process we should start with is to do a battery rating. In this case, the first step we must take charge in full having the laptop closed to make sure we start with 100% battery.
After that, we should go to selecting the power of the machine and set the "Balanced" setting.
Some additional corrections must be made:
- Set the screen to never close.
- In advanced positions, we should change the parameter «Low battery action» and set «Do Nothing».
- In the same section, in the «Action Action Battery» you should select «Hibernate».
This is done, we have to remove the battery. To do this, with the laptop disconnected from power, we can start playing or watching a movie or anything else until the battery is discharged. According to the plan we pre-programmed, the equipment will go into hiding mode when the battery reaches 10%.
After draining the battery, we must 100% recharge the battery, and by the time the charging is complete, the battery rating should be completed and from then on, the app should be let us know exactly the remaining percentages
Check drivers and updates
Even with a laptop battery, we have to make sure the drivers are properly installed. For this to be able to install it directly, so we'll make sure that Windows detects the battery properly, and to do that we must go to the Windows Windows Manager, and under the "Batteries" section to see it (for example from UPS, Windows feels like a battery because it's connected via USB on a computer even if it's a desktop, but on a laptop you'll see something like "Microsoft AC Adapter and Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Way Battery«.
When the battery is available, we click and choose to remove it. When done, click on the "Action" menu and select the "Search hardware changes" option. The operating system will search for an uncontrolled device and enable it to install it again.
Similarly, check if you don't have Windows updates pending, since the app itself constantly updates the battery drivers.
