The easiest way to conserve your battery is to dim the screen of the laptop. The screen eats up a lot of energy, and chances are you don\u2019t really need it that bright in the first place. The more you dim it, the more energy you will save. If you are desperate for battery life, turning it down to the lowest setting that still renders screen readable to you is the way to go. If you just want to conserve energy, taking it down to halfway will help conserve the battery and give you additional time down the road.<\/p>\n

It is almost second nature for people to charge their phones when they have a chance, but doing so while using your laptop can be a serious drain on its battery. If you need to maximize your laptop battery then unplug your phone, tablet or other device from it. You should see a big difference in battery performance almost immediately. In fact, it is best not to have any USB accessories, such as a wireless mouse, plugged in at all. These can also deplete your laptop battery in short order.<\/p>\n

While it\u2019s fine to keep open multiple programs, applications, and other features when your laptop is plugged in, these will eat away at your battery life when you\u2019re away from a power socket. You should run a quick inventory on what you are using, and then close out of the rest. Do you really need to be running Skype if you are not talking to anyone? Probably not. Don\u2019t just push them into the background, though. Be sure to close out of them completely. By only running what you need, you can reduce the burden on your battery.<\/p>\n

Wi-Fi can be one of the biggest drags on a laptop battery, because it is constantly using energy to search for new networks or to stay connected to the one it\u2019s on. Not only that, but internet browsers, especially ones with multiple tabs open, can increase energy consumption. If you aren\u2019t using the internet, you should shut off the Wi-Fi and close out of any browsers. If you do need to use the internet, avoid opening multiple tabs, watching videos or streaming music.<\/p>\n

The best way to conserve your laptop\u2019s battery life is by being vigilant and alert to usage in advance. It is almost always better to err on the side of caution when it comes to the battery life left on your laptop.<\/p>\n
