Laptops - Keep an Eye on Battery!
By Victor Thomas
The usage of battery depends upon how long you are going to work in your laptop. The power consumption is also determined by the mode of using your laptops.
- There is a tiny icon on your system tray to monitor the battery if you are in Windows XP platform. It is the geographical representation which shows remaining charge in your battery like mobile phones.
- By seeing itself you can identify the battery level approximately. If you could not view it properly, point the cursor close to that icon, and it will clearly indicate you the level of charge consumption. Otherwise select “power options” icon from the control panel.
- You can easily monitor the battery level from battery monitor window. It is offered by the particular manufacturer of the laptop. With the help of special shortcut key, you can bring the special battery status icons from the control panel on the screen.
- The remarkable point in this regard is when your laptop is functioned with the support of AC source of power it may be difficult to get the battery icon, in your notification area. You can view this icon after you unplug this AC power source.
- If you want to show this icon even when the AC power has plugged in your laptop, there is a way to get it. First you have to click “Power Options” icon by opening the control panel. Second you have to click advanced tab, and activate the option called “Always Show Icon on the Task bar” with a tick mark. Finally click “OK”. That is you can always view this icon on the screen.
These are the distinct way to monitor the battery level in your laptops. Try out any one of them if need all of them.
