Save your Battery life

You must be worrying about the drainage of your mobile battery and must be thinking..what is wrong with this battery and why it does not last longer.
 I can provide few simple extra tricks or rather Tips to save your mobile battery
 Here they are:

1. First would be "Switching off your Mobile" ..LOL
 This would definitely save your battery. Dont take this in other way, what I meant is, switch off your mobile when you know that you are not going to make / answer any call or you dont want to use your mobile. When you know you will be in "No network" coverage area, there is no point keeping to mobile phone ON. Your phone will continue to search for network and loose all of its power in searching a Network coverage.


2. Do not Vibrate: 
When someone calls to you, your phone will Ring as well as Vibrate. Here your Phone's Speaker as well as the Phones Vibrating motor will consume the battery together. So to save some battery life, you can turn off the vibration mode of the mobile and if possible keeping the Ring Volume low so that you can listen the ring if someone calls.

3.  Turn off the Bluetooth and Wifi: 
If your phone supports Bluetooth or Wifi or Both, switch them Off. If any of these services are running that will loose huge amount of battery power. There are other features like GPS, Infrared (though Obsolete :) ) should also be turned off to save power.

4. If the mobile phone support Brightness feature, keep it too the lowest possible. Because your screen is also a huge consumer of battery.

5. If you have Screen saver or animated image as a wallpaper, change it some dark colored image. Animated background can also drain your battery faster

6. Remember the Golden Rule: Full Charge and Full Discharge
Dont put your mobile on charging when its having some power enough to last for next few hours (do this when your charger is handy)
And when it is charging let it charge it too full.
NOTE: Avoid full discharging of a lithium-ion battery
Unlike Ni-Cd batteries, lithium-ion batteries' life is shortened when you fully discharge them. Instead, charge them when the battery meter shows one bar left. Lithium-ion batteries, like most rechargeable batteries, have a set number of charges in them.

7. To make your battery last longer, always keep it in cool place.

8. And Remember, do not use faulty Chargers, if the charger is faulty or broken, it may lead to make your battery faulty as well.
