very nice tips. First, i’ll thanks to you for sharing above informations.
When you remove the battery and use directly A/C power, it is better. But when current goes off, in no time laptop turns off. Which is a problem and dangerous.
I’ve also tried it by removing battery, then removing adaptor plug… laptop turned off, other application running were lost.
Is there any solution??

Again thank you.

Yes that’s what I usually do. I fully charge then use the battery down to 40% then shutdown my computer and remove the battery.

(It’s recommended that the notebook battery is charged to 40% if you do plan to remove it from the laptop and store it for a long time.)

Does this mean that it should not be charged any higher and if so.. so I use it until it is down to that level?

Thanks,
Tim

Hi Lisa,

If your battery is located at the back of the notebook, you can place a clean cloth to cover the opening of the battery. If your battery is at the bottom, I think you won’t need to worry about dust particles but you can just cover it with a thin and clean cloth if you like. Just don’t cover the vents at the bottom of the laptop.

If your room isn’t really that dusty, I think you won’t need to cover it while you’re using it. Just be sure to place it inside a laptop sleeve or laptop bag whenever you’re not using your laptop to protect it from dust.

Great info.
With what do you cover the opening where the battery goes so that you don’t have dust particles entering your computer or collecting on the exposed chips?
