Maximizing battery discharge time

Battery discharge time varies depending on the features you use while on battery power. Maximum discharge time gradually shortens, as the battery storage capacity naturally degrades.

Tips for maximizing battery discharge time:

Lower the brightness on the display.

Check the Power saver setting in Power Options.

Remove the battery from the computer when it is not being used or charged.

Store the battery in a cool, dry location.
