As we used to say, the charge speed is determined by AC adapter more than battery. When a Gateway laptop battery occurs to charge rapidly, more of users won’t pay attention to it while it may also be considered as the advantage of lithium-ion laptop batteries.



Thanks to the features of lithium-ions, more problems in Ni-mh and Ni-cd batteries have been solved, such as memory effect, higher energy density and lighter weight. For these reasons, it seems to be normal for Gateway laptop battery to charge rapidly. However, if it continues to be more fast while discharges slowly, is it still good to users?

Gateway mx8710 laptop battery, a li-ion one of 14.8 V and 4400mAh, is hard to charge rapidly for its output voltage comes to be higher than many others. In the process of charging, the voltage increases first and current follows. That’s to say, it is the voltage more than current that determines the charge speed.



However, how comes Gateway mx8710 laptop battery to be fast charged with no updates before? After checking by open-circuit voltage, I find out that there’re internal contaminants produced, including that of Gateway laptop power cord. As the later process of charge is only top-off charge, the part of voltage comes to be the primary contributor.



When internal resistances increase, those inside the cells in particular, the capacity comes to be reduced. The direct result is increasing the process of voltage charge and vice versa in discharge, just as the example of Gateway laptop battery. Although it is OK from the appearance, this abnormal phenomenon should be paid more attention to.

A new netbook has been released that it can last for about eight hours with Gateway laptop battery in it. This standby time seems to be a high level for all the laptop batteries while many others can only reach half of the value.



Since Gateway emerged in US, it hasn’t been so popular and developed so well as many other laptop suppliers. Although Gateway laptop battery has good battery cells, circuit designs and even advanced technology, it comes to keep on the low for a long time. So is this kind of netbook to last for long while it is always regarded as a native brand in US.

Except for the unique features of netbook, there’re still some additional factors to extend the battery capacity of Gateway laptop battery. Normally, a lithium-ion battery, just as Gateway mx8710 laptop battery with 14.8V and 4400mAh can only last for three to four hours. Comparatively, a high capacity battery needs more cells inside.



As laptop batteries with longer standby time are at higher risk of overheat while more internal resistances will be produced by it. For this reason, Gateway laptop battery comes to improve the interior and exterior materials in shell, circuitry and electrode. A new substance, called lithium manganese oxide is with better performance in inductive effect to extend the battery shelf life.



With nanotechnology applied, we don’t need to worry about reaction emerges in the Gateway laptop battery. Actually, lithium hydroxide and hydrogen gas can promote the lithium-ions to be more stable and efficient. That’s why it can reach the high level of standby time with no more cells added into it.



Anyway, as netbook requires less power energy than a normal laptop, the technology of laptop batteries still have a long way to go in the shelf life, standby time and recharging cycles.

Just like the relationship between doctor and patient, we users and Gateway laptop battery should learn more with each other to optimize the performance. Actually, both of us two should be unique to each other for different requirements, habits, feature and so on.



As we have told that everyone should learn clearly about our own habits before purchasing a new Gateway laptop battery. It has no occasion to pursue for a higher capacity if it is unnecessary to us. Actually, we should have a list of our usage ways, such as how many programs will be used in daily life, how long will it last for every day and so on. Someone like IT workers needs to work with multi-programs running there so that a high capacity laptop battery is necessary to them. However, if not, we’d better go for a stable one with perfect work condition instead of any other additional functions.

In addition, the features of Gateway laptop battery also influence our daily work a lot. Compared to Thinkpad t60 battery, Gateway comes to have a higher output voltage in specifications. According to the principle of charging, a higher voltage battery needs a longer time to get the stage of constant-potential charge. That is to say, we shouldn’t keep a lot of applications running in that period as voltage hasn’t reached the certain level.



In the process of using, we should also care more about the condition of Gateway laptop battery by a deep talk. When it comes to be hot, we should consider if it needs an air conditioner or it becomes overheat. When it comes to be reduced in capacity, we should activate on it to optimize its performance even if it is a Thinkpad t60 battery. When we have a deep talk with the battery, we can learn more about its requirements and ourselves.

Moreover, some cheap laptops don’t have this kind of battery management software which is installed as a power management IC. However, universal power monitoring software can have the similar action to laptop computer battery.


With the software, lenovo laptop battery, for example, will extend its standby time from two and half hours to nealy three and a half hours. It is controlled by brightness of screen, running speed of CPU and radiator fan, which really have done a remarkably good job.


Proper charging method of laptop computer battery


For most users, laptop is always connecting with laptop battery charger. It should be noticed that it is really dangerous to the battery. If the situation lasts long, the standby time must be short and laptop battery life is greatly reduced.


As is known to all, laptop battery life is determined by charging cycles. If no sooner after fully charged is the battery recharged again, the power capacity of li-ion battery will be accelerated reduction. We recommend that it is better to charge when it is indicated to be less than 10% power in it. Furthermore, it is still harmful to keep the battery capacity too low. Under normal circumstances, the range from 3% to 10% is the most reasonable choice.


For this reason, you can set the alarming limit to 10% instead of 3% which is not enough for laptop computer battery to supply enough power of starting up.


Is discharge necessary to laptop computer battery?


If the laptop battery capacity reduced rapidly after a long time use, it is best to save it by deep discharge. Of course, the method cannot have effect all the time. The easiest way is to keep programs running until the remaining power is less than 3%. Then restart and enter BIOS with empty operation until it shuts down automatically. As to recharge time, 8 hour comes to be the best while more than 12 hours will be harmful.


Any laptop batteries, including dell laptop battery and gateway laptop battery, needs to be maintained carefully and patiently. Or it is most likely to be the first part to damage.

Like many other lithium-ion batteries, dell laptop battery needs recycling to avoid environment pollution. With a large sales volume, Dell batteries have played an important role in it, even the users themselves will be injured. However, the information of the battery recycling is rare to all.


Dell laptop battery, a breed of advanced li-ion battery, is performed by energy conversion. The electrical energy for laptop is reserved as chemical substances in the battery. Among these chemical materials, there is lead, lithium-ion, mercury and so on. Any of them will pollute the nature seriously. The local authority in US has drawn up the laws to fix it and won’t cost you a lot.


Before any operation, the battery should be checked if it can be recycled. No matter it is gateway laptop battery gateway laptop battery, Sony laptop battery, or even IBM laptop battery, the test is necessary. The battery should be installed to the laptop and other external power supply. If it can be charged, the battery is said to be recycled.


Never to throw the battery to the garbage bin directly. The chemical substance discharged from the battery may flow into the ground water and then our drinking water. Does it sound to be terrible? That’s the reality. Look for a professional recycling site or just give it to the special supplier, like stationer. Besides, the given recycling sites have been set in some companies and residential quarters. Normally, you can also get the pay from them.


Although these batteries are useless, the recycling is really significant to all of us. Only a few efforts will make our life go green. To create a better environment for later generations, just take the action.
