When you travel with your laptop, you would want long battery life. It’s extremely important when you travel on the plane, where you have all the time to be productive, but the battery couldn’t last as long as your concentration – ouch. Looks no further though, Sam Phillips at On The Beach suggests 10 ways to extend your laptop battery life:
- Only run what you need
- Kill extraneous process
- Be gentle
- Adjust your screen brightness
- Disable built-in hardware features you don’t need
- Be careful with the external peripherals too
- Use power saving features carefully
- Monitor operating temperature
- Maintain the condition of your battery
