Power management
When you need to use your computer away from electrical outlets, you depend on battery power to keep
your computer running. Different computer components consume power at different rates. The more you
use the power-intensive components, the faster you consume battery power.
Spend more time unplugged with ThinkPad batteries. Mobility has revolutionized business by allowing
you to take your work wherever you go. With ThinkPad batteries, you will be able to work longer without
being tied to an electrical outlet.
Checking the battery status
The battery status icon in the Windows notification area displays the percentage of battery power remaining.
The rate at which you use battery power will determine how long you can use the battery of your computer
between charges. Because each computer user has different habits and needs, it is difficult to predict how
long a battery charge will last. There are two main factors:
• How much energy is stored in the battery when you begin to work.
• The way you use your computer: how often you access the hard disk drive; how bright you make the
computer display.
To check for detailed battery status information, do the following:
