Laptop-Power UK News

Many people are becoming frustrated at the incredibly short laptop battery run times that they are having to put up with. For sure there are some poor quality laptop batteries being included in some of the cheaper end laptops such as Acer and Toshiba, but some of the problem lies with the user.

Many people mistakenly believe that using their laptop with their laptop charger constantly plugged in is a good was to preserve their laptop battery. Nothing could be further from the truth. For a battery to lead a long and happy leave it needs to be fully charged and discharged on a regular basis.

In many ways it is like taking a dog for a walk. To remain healthy over the long term the laptop battery needs to be put through its paces now and again. The easiest and best way to achieve this is to use your laptop without the laptop charger plugged in regularly. Run the battery down to nearly empty and then plug the laptop adapter back in once more to fully charge it back up. Do this once every couple of days and you will be presently surprised to see the effect that it has on your laptop battery’s charging performance.

Given the recent popularity of the Ipad 1 and Ipad 2 many people have begun to question whether the growth of tablets spells the beginning of the end of the laptop. From talking to our customer base it would seem that people don’t view the tablet and the laptop and substitutes. For one tablets can’t be used for word processing therefore are of a lot less use to students and professionals. Secondly, ergonomically tablets aren’t that popular with everyone given the lack of a keyboard.

It does seem that the days of the netbook may be drawing in however with the growth of the tablet. Since netbooks also lack computing power, they represent a more direct substitute to the Ipad and the Samsung Galaxy. Again however it remains to be seen whether the absence of a physical keyboard is something people will readily accept over time.

Here at Laptop Power UK, our job is to prepare for every eventuality. As well as stocking a full and comprehensive range of laptop chargers and netbook power leads, we are now stocking original replacement tablet screens and digitizers / touch panels.
