I need tips with Dell battery back up increase life

Hi,

There are many ways to increase battery life :

 1- Avoid deep discharging any rechargeable battery  because it is extremely fatal for it.

 2- Uninstall unused programs that run in the background.

 3- Reduce brightness by changing power plan.

 4-Turn OFF signal check for Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.

 5- Use Hibernate rather than Sleep.
