There are literally hundreds of different cell
phone models and pricing plans to consider when purchasing a new
cell phone. Most people carry a cell phone so they can do business
out of the office and so there family will be able to reach them
when they are away from home. If you don’t have a dependable cell
phone with a long lasting battery, having a cell phone will be
useless. Below we have shared some tips to getting the most life out
of your cell phone battery.
Life of your Cell Phone Batteries:
With proper care, your cell phone battery can last
between 300 to 400 charge and discharge cycles. If you charge your
phone each night, you can expect that your batteries will last
between 11-14 months. People who recharge their batter every 2-3
days may be able to use a battery for two years or more.
Getting the most out of your Cell Phone Batteries:
To extend the life of your cell phone batteries, be sure to
follow all of the manufacturers charging instructions when first
purchasing your phone and giving your cell phone its first full
charge.
Taking care of your Cell Phone
Batteries:
It is not a good idea to leave your cell
phone in your vehicle on days when it is either extremely hot or
extremely cold. If you do need to leave your phone in your vehicle
under extreme temps, make sure to turn your cell phone off. Do not
leave your cell phone plugged into the car charger continuously
because every time your vehicle is started equals a “charge cycle”.
This is one of common reasons for short cell phone battery life.
Should your phone become completely discharged, be sure to recharge
your cell phone as soon as possible. Try to avoid leaving a battery
unused for long extensions of time (two months or more). If your
cell phone battery goes to long without a charge, it may not be able
to recharge when needed.
Following these few tips will help
extend the life of your cell phone batteries to assure that your
cell phone will be accessible when you most need it. If you are like
me, that means all of the time! It is hard to remember a time before
cell phones!
