New battery last a very short charge even though it is fairly new
Von laptop, 08:37There are some manufacturers that caution people to condition the battery first before trying to install it the laptop. The most general procedure is to charge the Dell Precision M6300 battery fully before using it or leaving it on the AC battery charger overnight then using the laptop solely on battery until the Dell Studio 1735 battery is discharged. Some brands suggest that you run the laptop until the operating system warns you of low battery life remaining (anywhere from 10% to 3%). Recommendation differs from one battery manufacturer to another so it is important to read the owners manual instructions and follow the calibration guide in the manual included with the laptop battery.
Laptop is new and battery is dead
Some people are surprised when they bought their brand-new laptops when they find out that their Dell Vostro 1520 battery is dead, or runs down very quickly even when they fully charge it. Keep in mind that even though you just received your laptop from shipment, that laptop may have been sitting in a warehouse for six months or even a year before you bought it from a store. It is more than enough time for the battery of that notebook to self discharge to an appreciable degree even if it isn’t being used. You can try to recondition the Dell Latitude D510 battery and see if it will hold enough power that will last longer than when you first used it. Try to check the laptop manufacturer website for any tools, tops or software that may be available and help you with your problem. Chances are the battery that comes with your new laptop simply can’t hold a charge the way it did when it was new.
If you just received the laptop as a hand-me-down or purchased it in second hand store then there’s no reason to expect that a short Dell Inspiron 1420 battery life is due to anything other than an aged battery of the laptop but you can also try some troubleshooting just to be sure.
