Maximizing battery discharge time 15 Maximizing battery discharge time Battery discharge time varies depending on the features you use while on the display. ● Check the Power saver setting in Power Options. ● Remove the battery from the computer when it is not being used or charged. ● Store the battery in a cool, dry location. Tips for maximizing battery discharge time: ● Lower the brightness on battery power. Maximum discharge time gradually shortens, as the battery storage capacity naturally degrades.
