Hi Folks,
Please can someone tell me what are the best settings to use on my laptop.
I use the battery wireless sometimes, also the plug in power sometimes. Also
does the battery charge up whenever I plug into the mains, even though it is
on WLAN
thanks in advance
Pat.
 
The best settings to use are the ones you like.

For example, you may be able to reduce the screen brightness while on battery
power - this will significantly extend battery charge life, but you may find the
screen too dark.

You might want to power down the hard drive after a short time, to conserve
power.

There are other options, you'll have to decide what works best for you.

And yes, the battery does recharge when the laptop is plugged into an AC outlet,
even while the laptop is in use.
