Refurbished Laptop Batteries

There are three types of laptop battery refurbished, each of these materials for the component:

Nickel-cadmium (NiCd) batteries are hardly ever seen anymore. They have dismally low capacities (2000-3000 mAh) and heavy metals that harm the environment. At worst, the dreaded "memory effect". When you recharge a NiCad battery before it is completely empty, the battery life is concerned. This is the memory effect.

Nickel-metal hydride (NiMH)The batteries have twice the capacity of NiCad batteries (4000-6000 mAh) and are half as likely to bring the memory effect. But these are rare.

Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) batteries are today's battery-equipped laptop. Everyone has the capacity of a NiMH battery, but zero memory effect and zero toxins. Bonus: The Li-Ion batteries weigh half as much as NiMH batteries.

With the purchase of a battery, the consumer has three options: used, refurbished or new.

Second, turn off the energy absorbing foreign elements. The major power vampires in your laptop is the hard disk, CD and DVD drives, network devices and not all the settings screen too bright.

Third, you can double overall battery capacity by installing a second battery. Your laptop must have a universal bay in order to do so. All you have to do, then remove the CD-ROM or floppy disk and put a battery in place.
