As we all know, changing battery is a real investment, the order of hundred euros is usually why it is better to know certain concepts and implement them to prolong their lifespan.
For example:
* When you buy a battery for the first thing you should do (after seeing the power in W) is to see the date of production: a battery loses its capacity from the moment it is made, therefore the more recent the date of manufacture, the battery capacity will be very close to that listed on the label.
* Prefer brands of batteries, especially batteries do not buy imported directly from China promotion, they can be very dangerous since they probably had a very low quality control and even no quality control. So be careful as they can be dangerous!
* Do not exceed the discharge current specified by the manufacturer of the battery (eg 4400mAh then if it appears to consume no more than 4.4 A for one hour) and that can damage considerably. To be clear, it is not advisable to use the battery to power other machines.
* A very important point mentioned above: never use it to below 10% load. In general the operating system puts the PC into standby when it is only 15% load. If you run the risk of losing 20% of its capacity at once, personally lost 10% of the capacity of my battery trying to prove.
* Do not use the battery while charging. But not to worry, because when recharge the battery power cable power divided: one part is going to charge the battery and the other is used to operate the laptop, therefore the battery is not used during this time.
* Refresh the battery pack without interruption when it is downloaded to the maximum (not below 10% but when the operating system puts the laptop on standby). This allows the battery to do a full discharge followed by a full charge, which allows to keep it. This is recommended 1 to 2 times per month.
Another important point is that it is necessary to remove the battery when the PC is connected to the mains, and say that it is not necessary simply because all current laptops (or the same batteries) are equipped with electronic circuits that prevent using the battery and is charged when the laptop is connected to the mains. Instead unplug the power cord from a laptop when off, to avoid any unnecessary burden on micro-battery.
It seems that Sony stops charging the battery to 80% of its new laptops to limit wear. So if you look at this on a Sony laptop there is no reason to worry. Do not forget the batteries are thrown into the trash but should be left in an appropriate location for the recycling. There are some very useful programs to monitor closely the battery. You can get more information on the web.
