Don't you just hate it when your mobile phone battery wont even last until you get home? How it goes flat every time you talk, use the camera, listen to a song or browse the internet? It really is very frustrating to have a weak battery that cannot hold much power to last a day with average activity. Reasons for a weak battery are the misuse of the battery and the lack of proper maintenance. The capacity of a mobile phone battery is measured by its standby time and talk time. It is measured in milli-amph hours (mAh). Rechargeable batteries have three main types, Nickel Cadmium (NiCd), Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH), and Lithium Ion (LiIon). Lithium Ion (LiIon) batteries are what you find in most mobile phones and in order to preserve the battery you might want to follow these steps.
 

Battery heated gloves are ideal for motorcyclists, skiers, fishermen, and snowmobilers, etc. The gloves are made out of different types of materials and generally come with a soft and warm insulation that also pads the gloves. Some models are waterproof and/or windproof. Most of them are also adjustable and come with a small kobalt abbau-ion battery in each glove that heats them up.

There are several types of battery in use at the present time and each must be treated differently. There are Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cad), Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) and Lithium-ion. Ni-Cad is old technology and hence only found in ancient handsets, so I will not be covering them in this article. NiMH batteries perform much better than Ni-Cad, typically giving 30% more talk time, but Lithium are thinner and give even higher performance. I will be concentrating on lithium facts-ion as it is the most used modern mobile phone battery to date. Check which type of battery your phone has before following any of the following.

All the phones now come with lithium ion batteries and charging should not be an issue ...although it's best not to charge them over 24 hours..Overnight every night is fine...they all do have a life though leaving it off when you don't need it can extend that. Although you would miss calls.

You lithium bettery stock do not need all the sounds. Using heavy mp3 ring tones, keypad tones, vibrating and other chimes together are unnecessary. If you want a ring tone, switch off your vibrating mode. If you are using vibration then turn off mp3 ringtones. Turn down the overall volume of your phone as loud mobiles can be annoying and prone to battery wastage. Remember that vibration mode drains out most of your battery power.

As mentioned earlier, there are different types of batteries. You can choose a lithium ion battery if your primary source is electric power supply, but you do switch from fixed power to a battery on a regular basis. A Nickel based battery is preferable if you use a battery as your primary source.

Today, many of the latest computers have a fast recharge feature where you can recharge 90 percent of the battery power by charging it for around one hour. The balance 10 percent is recharged slowly. If your laptop has this facility, do use it. This helps to extend the life of the battery. However, do not recharge the laptop battery until it has less than 30 percent charge remaining.
