How long should I charge my laptop computer battery for?
Below
are some general guidelines that should be followed when charging your
laptop computer battery. Keep in mind these are general suggestions and
that if your computer or battery documentation states something
different those directions should be followed.
New battery or first use
After purchasing a new laptop computer or battery for
your laptop we recommend that the battery be charged for no less than
24-hours. This helps verify the battery is fully charged and will help
with the batteries life expectancy. After being fully charged we also
suggest letting the battery fully discharge and then fully charging it
again. Doing this multiple times may extend the battery life even
further.
If you're excited to use your new laptop, it
can still be used while plugged in. However, we suggest not unplugging
it until it's been charged for that length of time.
All other charges
After the computer battery has gone through it's
initial charge all other battery charging should go until the laptop has
reached its capacity. Often this will only be a few hours of charging.
Note: Even when the computer is off as long as it's plugged in it will continue to charge.
