Tech words explained
- "Battery"
- Capacity – The greater the number of cells, the longer the battery will last. Laptop batteries come in 4, 6, 8, 9, or 12-cell sizes. The charge capacity of a battery is defined as Amps per Hour (A/H), or milliamps per Hour (1,000 milliAmps = 1 Amp). The larger mAH rating, the longer the battery will last.
Type – There are many different types of technologies that have been used to make laptop batteries. The oldest is NiCad (Nickel-cadmium), which offers relatively low performance at a heavy weight.
A newer technology NiMH (nickel-metal hydride) offers much greater performance than NiCad with a little weight reduction. It can be recharged hundreds of times but to maintain peak capacity, it must be fully discharged occasionally and it also discharges while in idle up to 40% a month.
The modern laptop battery uses Li-ion (Lithium-ion) technology, which offers the same performance as NiMH, but at a drastically reduced weight. Lithium-ion batteries pack in a higher power density to extend a longer battery life in a lighter form. Lithium-ion battery can be recharged anytime.
