  • ...16 more annotations...
  • 4. Cut down external devices
  • 5. Add more RAM - This will allow you to process more with the memory your laptop has, rather than relying on virtual memory. 
  • 6. Run off a hard drive rather than CD/DVD - As power consuming as hard drives are, CD and DVD drives are worse. 
  • 7.  Keep the battery contacts clean: 
  • 8. Take care of your battery - Exercise the Battery.
  • Also, do not let a Li-On battery completely discharge. (Discharing is only for older batteries with memory effects)
  • 9. Hibernate not standby - Although placing a laptop in standby mode saves some power and you can instantly resume where you left off, it doesn’t save anywhere as much power as the hibernate function does. 
  • 10. Keep operating temperature down
  • 11. Set up and optimize your power options - Go to ‘Power Options’ in your windows control panel and set it up so that power usage is optimized (Select the ‘max battery’ for maximum effect).
  • 12. Don’t multitask - Do one thing at a time when you’re on battery. 
  • 13. Go easy on the PC demands - The more you demand from your PC.  Passive activities like email and word processing consume much less power than gaming or playing a DVD.  If you’ve got a single battery charge - pick your priorities wisely.
  • 14. Get yourself a more efficient laptop
  • 15. Prevent the Memory Effect - If you’re using a very old laptop, you’ll want to prevent the ‘memory effect’ - Keep the battery healthy by fully charging and then fully discharging it at least once every two to three weeks. Exceptions to the rule are Li-Ion batteries (which most laptops have) which do not suffer from the memory effect.
  • Bonus Tip #1: Turn off the autosave function. 
  • While it saves battery life in the beginning, you will want to make sure your work is saved when your battery dies.
  • Bonus Tip #2: Lower the graphics use.
