Ways to Stretch HP Presario CQ70 Laptop Battery Life
HP Presario CQ70 Laptop orginal 6-Cell Lithium-Ion battery will provide 2-3 hours of wireless experience, but it depends more on the apps you use. There are some easy steps you can take to extend the life of your HP Presario CQ70 Laptop Battery, including closing any windows and programs you don’t use, plugging out the external devices you’re not using, adjust the screen’s brightness, following are the best ways:
Form Healthy Laptop Battery Habits
Keep your HP Presario CQ70 Battery clean. Check the connections every once in a while and give them a wipe. Dirt, grease, and moisture can cause corrosion at the point where your battery connects to your phone. Damaged or dirty connections can inhibit your battery’s ability to send power to your phone, and cause energy to be lost during the transfer. If you can’t access the battery on your phone, you can often bring it back to the point of sale and get a complimentary check-up and cleaning. Many retailers are very receptive to this type of request.
Try not to recharge your HP presario cq70 laptop battery until it’s as low as you’re willing to go. And when you do recharge, give your battery a full burst before unplugging it. Batteries are designed for a certain number of discharges/recharges, so this will help enhance the efficiency and extend the life of your battery.
Avoid hot battery. Keep your battery cool by resting your laptop on the table instead of in your pocket or hands. Try not to leave it in the car or out in the sun. High temperatures wear down a HP 484170-001 battery power quickly.
Adjust Your HP Presario CQ70 Laptop Settings
Dim your screen to the lowest comfortable level. Exact levels will be different for every person and every circumstance, but keeping this in mind when you need a little extra battery life can make a big difference.
Set syncing to the widest intervals that you can live with. Common settings for email accounts and active applications tell your laptop to check in every 15 or 30 minutes or to sync continuously and send push notifications. The latter means that your laptop is constantly checking up on multiple applications, which sucks up a lot of power.
Disable your WiFi, Data, or Bluetooth capabilities. Some laptops, smartphones default settings have all of these enabled, but you usually only use one or two of them. Take note of which are the most appropriate for you and disable the others in your settings menu until you need them. Alternatively, you can disable this setting in certain applications, like weather apps, which are constantly accessing your data connection. That way you can maintain access, but limit the amount of battery power you’re using, and avoid blowing through your data cap.
