10 Tips to Extend Your Battery Lifespan

Modern devices rely heavily on batteries, but their capacity degrades over time. Proper usage can help maintain battery health and prolong its life. Here are the best recommendations:

1. Avoid Full Discharges 🔌
   • Optimal charge level: Keep between 20% and 80%.
   • Deep discharges (to 0%) damage lithium-ion batteries.
2. Don’t Keep It at 100% for Too Long ⚡
   • Continuous full charging accelerates wear.
   • If your device stays plugged in, use "Optimized Charging" mode (available on smartphones and laptops).
3. Monitor Temperature 🌡
   • Ideal range: +15°C to +25°C.
   • Dangerous extremes:
     • ❌ Above +35°C – rapid degradation.
     • ❌ Below 0°C – temporary capacity loss.
4. Use Original Chargers 🔋
   • Cheap chargers with unstable voltage can damage the battery.
   • Fast charging (Quick Charge) is safe but should be used in moderation.
5. Don’t Store Devices Fully Discharged 🔄
   • If not using a device for a while, store it at 40–60% charge.
   • A completely drained battery may fail permanently.
6. Reduce Battery Strain 📱
   • Lower screen brightness.
   • Disable unnecessary background processes (GPS, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi).
   • Use dark mode on OLED screens.
7. Charge Correctly 🔌
   • Multiple short charges are better than one long session.
   • Avoid heavy gaming while charging (overheating risk!).
8. Check Battery Wear 📉
   • On Android and iOS, check battery health in settings or via apps.
   • capacity drops below 70–80%, consider replacing the battery.
9. Prevent Overheating 🛡
   • Avoid leaving devices in direct sunlight or near heat sources.
   • Remove cases during intensive charging or gaming.
10. Calibrate the Battery (If Needed) 🔄
    • If charge percentage is inaccurate:
      • Discharge the device to 0%.
      • Charge to 100% without interruptions.
      • Repeat no more than once every 3 months.

Following these tips can extend your battery lifespan by 20–50%. Your battery will last longer, and your device will remain functional for years without needing a replacement!
