Most people spend money year-in, year-out buying new laptop batteries without knowing the reason why their previous batteries got spoilt.
Here are the 4 reasons why your laptop battery keep getting spoilt and won't last as expected:

1. Hibernation
Did I hear you scream OWA!!.. yes hibernation kills laptop batteries. I didn't know this for a very long time until recently after going for a computer training program in China, because I was fond of hibernating my system I even set it to "hibernate when I close my lid" option and this have been killing my batteries for years until recently. Please stop hibernating your laptops ASAP instead save your work and shut it down. VERY IMPORTANT....

2. Over charging your laptops
Immediately your laptop shows the fully charged indicator, please kindly unplug it from power source. Over charging your batteries weakens the life span of your battery over time, so please stop this habit.

3. Charging your laptops in a low voltage/current
Charging your laptop on a low voltage/current also weakens your battery life span over time. For instance, charging your laptop with a small generator i.e. "I pass my neighbour" type like the small tiger generators, etc, damages your laptop batteries or when PHCN give you a low current, please don't charge your laptop under such current. TAKE NOTE!!!.

4. Using sub-standard charger or "cut and join" charger
Please use and buy original chargers to charge your laptop, don't think you are cutting costs buy buying sub-standard chargers or doing cut and join, it will cost you on the long run because it will eventually spoil your battery and you will keep buying new batteries every time. Simply buy and use original or follow-come chargers from trusted retail shops around you. (Even if it costs a bit more)
