Get more out of your laptop battery...

I found some tips which helped me in increasing the performance of my laptop when it is working on the battery. Most of them might be known to you but they still are pretty good and useful.


  • Set your battery performance to balanced or power saver mode.
  • Avoid watching movies or videos from external source like dvds/cds. They can kill 30% of your battery performance.
  • Reduce your backlight to the minimal level and switch off the wireless connection when not in use.
  • Kill unwanted background services like updates, defragments, indexing, etc..
There are lots other tips but I found these pretty important as they could save you some battery which can be used during emergency.
