Charge the laptop battery properly - you should pay attention to this

Your laptop's battery is a consumable item - it loses capacity with every charge. In our guide we will explain how to charge it correctly and thus extend its lifespan.

Charging the laptop battery - the best tips for correct charging

• Always fully charge your battery. You should avoid short loading times. When the battery appears as fully charged, leave the AC adapter connected for a while. Only then is the full capacity of the battery used.
• Always charge your battery before it is completely empty. It is best to connect it to a power supply with a 15% battery capacity.
• If you are not going to use your device for a long time, you should not fully charge the battery. Between 50 and 70 percent charge level are ideal for storage.
• You should completely discharge and recharge a new device a few times. The full capacity is available after three to five charging cycles.
• If you only operate your laptop with an AC adapter, this will permanently weaken the battery. You should therefore switch to battery operation once a month.
