We always hear complains about that, I just use this battery for a short time, but It doesn't work right now. One of my friends often suffers from the battery problems, when he is excited in playing games, suddenly the laptop is off. He is crazy! But maybe he fallows the below rules, his situation will be totally different.
1.As a matter of fact, charging battery for laptop is the same as charging for cell phone. You need to discharge it for three times. From this way, ions will be activated. But now the factory has done this for you before delivery, So you don't need to do this yourself.
2.when using laptop in bedroom, you are better to take out the battery and plugged in, or it will shorten the life of the battery.
3.Even thought you don't use batteries. Battery ions are still moving. which also would shorten battery life.
4.If you don't use it for a long time, you can charge it to 80% of its capacity. About one time in one month. Then discharges it and charges it. It seems like the cell phone batteries.
5.If you use it often, you also need to charge it completely, discharge it completely, then charge it, from this way, it will prolong the life of the battery.
6.When you charge, you can charge it until the light become green. Generally speaking, you just need to charge it for 2.5- 3 hours. It also depends on how many cell batteries of you laptop. 4cells's are different from 8 cell's. The detail information will be showed in the instruction book.
