Why is my dell studio 15 battery not working? I have this battery for nearly two year but never used it, and the battery power started dropping at an alarming rate when I used it again. Maybe that is the problem.A message said replace battery,when I took the battery out ,it appears to be rechargeable!!??.
This is a question asked by one client of hunt360.net. I think this is a typical question that offen asked by laptop batteries users and I believe that it is an universal accident that offen happened, so I would like to share the answer at the blog.
Generally, laptop batteries lose their ability to hold a charge when they are not used on a regular basis. Conditioning the battery once a month will help to recharge the battery and help the cells remember how to hold a full charge. If you let a battery drain slowly due to no use, eventually you will have a dead battery.
Laptop batteries only last 18-24 months to begin with and if it is not being charged and discharged regularly, the cells have no way to learn how to hold a charge. It is very important to initially condition the batttery with 2-4 complete charge/discharge cycles and then maintian it once a month to get the best performance.
