Battery life is a common topic for laptop users. I have read many many posts about how to prolong a laptop battery life. Here are most popular tips that I know.

0 – If you want to use your A.C./D.C power (use power directly from a charger) you may consider these steps:

  • Charge your battery full 100%
  • Unplug charger
  • Use battery power until I has about 45-50% life left.
  • Turn off your laptop (certainly) and remove your battery (and pls keep the placeholder of the batter clean + dry :D )
  • Place the battery in a cool place.
  • Use your A.C/D.C power

Someone said that “Never remove a fully charged battery from laptop for a period over well about 1 month, because your battery will not be able to be charged again”. I have not test this tip yet, so I am not sure it is true or not.

1 – Keep your battery working in a cool place (at least < 30*C) (Li-on battery is also a chemical battery, it reacts to heat).

2 – Do not charge your batter until the battery has just 5-10% life left.

3- Turn off unnecessary functions as much as you can (blue-tooth, wifi… when you don’t use them)

4 – Using Linux OS (advanced config).

Most of these tips come from my favorite post: http://www.trap17.com/index.php/Pro-long-Laptop-Battery-Life_t64414.html

iFun with Google Street View

Life, Tech December 25th, 2009

I have just watched a video of Google on Youtube about its latest announcements for desktop and mobile search. Watch it here. Wow! Those functions are so awesome, but I can not try all of them now due to my “so so high tech” cell phone. Too bad I don’t have any Android phone or iphone…

Watching this news gives me a source of inspiration for playing around with this big G man! And here are some photos from Google Street View (—^).

HOME (English with subtitles):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqxENMKaeCU

We are living in exceptional times. Scientists tell us that we have 10 years to change the way we live, avert the depletion of natural resources and the catastrophic evolution of the Earth’s climate.

The stakes are high for us and our children. Everyone should take part in the effort, and HOME has been conceived to take a message of mobilization out to every human being.

For this purpose, HOME needs to be free. A patron, the PPR Group, made this possible. EuropaCorp, the distributor, also pledged not to make any profit because Home is a non-profit film.

HOME has been made for you : share it! And act for the planet.
