The types of laptop batteries

When given this question to any user of the laptop or notebook, they will get confused. This happens to me once when someone asks me about the battery of my laptop. As you can see, before replacing the laptop battery is very important to know a little about the field again in the first place. There are several types of laptop batteries that I will share in this post.

The types of laptop batteries:


1. Alkaline – This is a common battery around, but only a few use laptops and the ruling on alkaline Dell Inspiron 6400 Battery is not rechargeable. You have to shoot once to deflate.


2. Lead Acid – One of the most common uses of this kind is for laptops. It is durable, resistant and rechargeable, but unfortunately the Dell Inspiron 640m Battery is heavy and full of lead: P.






3. Lithium-Ion – The type of Dell 6400 latop battery that you want to have for your laptop. The quick-charge effect is good for users moving (no need to wait a while for the battery is fully charged.) It is also environmentally friendly as well.















4. Nickel Cadmium – Ni-Cd is one of the oldest types and improved performance of rechargeable Vostro 1310 battery , but has a serious problem. After prolonged use (several years), the battery will be affected by the dreaded memory effect. This means that the use of battery life deteriorates over time.







5. Nickel Metal Hydride – Ni-MH is considered the successor to the Ni-Cd batteries, but unfortunately, the dreaded memory effect is as bad as well. However, comparison of the Ni-Cd and NiMH batteries, it lasts longer compared to its predecessor.

The chances of using lithium-ion Vostro 1520 battery is 99% (that is if you are using the new breed of laptops:)). Just check the abbreviation says Lion or Li-Ion batteries in laptop battery label. There are still some laptops that use Ni-MH batteries these days and you may want to check with the manufacturer if you can make an update of Ni-MH Li-Ion. The unauthorized use of batteries could lead to dire consequences …. so do be very careful about this. If you have a larger budget you might want to check the SMART batteries. It has a power management circuit and also tells the user which is the current condition of the battery.
