Every laptop or Netbook
user these days have the same headache of limited backup time of
batteries. As far as your system is new , you will have a good backup
time but when it becomes a few months old you will definitely face
problem of limited battery life.
So here I am giving you a solution to Increase battery life of laptop upto a sufficient extent.
There is an inbuilt command in your computer to Increase
battery life as well as the performance of the system but not all users
are aware of it. Some laptops directly provide an interface with option
termed as “ POWER SAVING MODE ” but if your laptop is
old or don’t have this feature by default , you need not to worry
because you can do the same task manually.
If you have a laptop with Windows 7 installed, you can use the ‘powercfg‘
command . It will display useful information about your laptop’s energy
consumption and usage. If you can understand and maintain it
correctly then you can extend your Battery life and performance by great amount.
Steps to increase battery life of laptop :
Step 1: Click on the Start Menu and type “ CMD ” in the Start Search bar.
Step 2: The search will start and it will then display an icon of “ CMD ” . simply right click on it and select Run as administrator.
Step 3: It will open command line, now simply run the command “powercfg -energy” without quotes. (For windows 7 users.)
Windows 8 users can Simply run the command “powercfg /energy” without quotes.
Step 4: Now Press “Enter”.
Once you successfully execute this command , Windows will
run a complete scan of your system and it will find some ways to
improve performance and power efficiency.
The results of this process will be saved to an HTML file, which is commonly present in the “System32” folder of most of the systems.
