Ways To Keep Your Battery Life Longer?

By Johny Jacson


If your car stops functioning in an isolated place, you would probably use your gadget to contact someone for help. But what if your gadget doesn't have any remaining power? In times like this, you should have a lipstick power bank with you.

Display Issues

High brightness can cause headache and eye strain on some users. If you're indoors, try to lessen it or even set at the lowest point, if possible. This would greatly help in maintaining your battery life.

Some power banks come with additional connectors for different gadgets. These connectors are the USB and the micro-USB.

However, this easily lowers the battery life because the display screen gets exhausted. Tone down the brightness of your screen and try to shorten the standby time.

Lithium polymer and lithium ion are the two kinds of batteries that a lipstick power bank may contain. These batteries take 2-4 hours to charge a gadget and they typically cost around $100.

Lithium polymer is an expensive battery that's manufactured from aluminum. It sends 4.20-4.35 volts to fully charged devices and 2.7-3.0 volts to discharged gadgets. It typically charges only cell phones and can withstand a temperature of 0-60 degrees Fahrenheit.

Parallax

Another thing that you probably notice in your iPhone 5 is the Background Motion. The parallax effect would make you visualize a 3D moving effect on the background against the icons on your home screen. As you move from left to right, the icons would follow through. It is indeed another advancement from Apple but also another reason why iPhone 5 drains its battery fast.

The lipstick power bank charges gadgets that need an input volt of 5-24 V. A laptop computer is an example of a gadget that requires an input volt of 12-24 V. Gadgets that need an input volt of 5 V are smart phones, digital cameras, iPods and PSPs. Tablets, SLR cameras and video cameras are examples of devices that need an input volt of 8-12 V.

Vibration is also understood to be essential especially for people who are always on the go. But this is also a major source of battery drain for most gadgets.

Some power banks use one LED color to determine the gadget's remaining power level, while other power banks use two LED colors. The most common LED colors that a lipstick power bank may use are blue, green, and red. The gadget is still charging when the LED indicator becomes red. The indicator becomes blue when the gadget is fully charged. The indicator turns green when the gadget has remaining power.

Airplane Mode

Lastly, a special trick that can be used on your iPhone 5 is utilizing the Airplane mode. When you're not using it, switching the airplane mode can help sustain the battery of your phone.

The lipstick power bank has short circuit protection and overcharge protection. The power bank has an IC protector that cuts the power supply to prevent short circuits. This protector also cuts off electricity when the gadget is fully charged. The electricity cut-off prevents the power bank's life from decreasing because of overcharging.
