How to Get More Life Out of Your Laptop Battery<\/span>
\n<\/strong><\/span>
\nThis tip is for Windows 10 – All versions<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s talk about an easy way to extend the life of your laptop battery. First, we recommend leaving your laptop plugged in whenever possible. But if you need to take your laptop with you when you\u2019re away from home, here\u2019s a tip that will extend your laptop\u2019s battery life and give you more time to use your laptop when you’re not near a power source.<\/span><\/p>\n

By default, Battery Saver in Windows 10 is set to turn on automatically when your battery\u2019s remaining capacity dips below 20%. But 20% isn\u2019t much to work with if you\u2019re, let\u2019s say, flying across the ocean and your power cord is packed in your suitcase and your suitcase is in the cargo hold. <\/span><\/p>\n

We have good news for all Windows 10 laptop users. You can manually turn on Battery Saver by clicking on the battery icon in your taskbar and then clicking on “Battery settings”.<\/span><\/p>\n

Turn the switch under “Battery saver” on. And while you’re there, it’s a good idea to turn down (dim) your screen brightness a bit.<\/span><\/p>\n

How do you know if the battery saver is turned on? It’s easy… just look for the green leaf overlay that appears on the battery icon, see?<\/span><\/p>\n

Does Windows 10’s Battery saver work? It worked for us. We tested Battery saver with one of our laptops and we were able to get almost 2 extra hours of life out of our laptop battery.<\/span><\/p>\n
