Monitoring battery capacity
Remaining battery power can be monitored in TOSHIBA Power Saver.
❑Wait at least 16 seconds after turning on the computer before trying to monitor the remaining operating time. The computer needs this time to check the battery’s remaining capacity and to calculate the remaining operating time, based on the cur- rent power consumption rate and remaining battery capacity. The actual remaining operating time may differ slightly from the calculated time.
❑With repeated discharges and recharges, the battery’s capac- ity will gradually decrease. Therefore, an often used, older battery will not operate for as long as a new battery even when both are fully charged. In this case, TOSHIBA Power Saver will indicate a 100% charge for both the old and new battery, but the displayed estimated time remaining will be shorter for the older battery.
