How do batteries get their charge?

Answer 1

You can rub the tips of the batteries together for 5 min and they will work for 15 more min.
I would like to tell you 3 tips about chargering your battery

1\ Your new laptop battery requires three complete charge/discharge cycles before use and achieving maximum capacity. It means the battery would have to be charged fully and then be discharged fully. Repeat it three times before starting to use the battery. By this way, battery's internal chemical materials can be activated and its internal chemical reaction can come into the optimal state. After the activation, the battery can be charged and used freely. But the battery will have to be discharged completely once a month so that the battery activity can be released by such deep discharge and battery life can be maintained.

2\ If battery is idle for over 3 months, it is also necessary to conduct 3 cycles of complete charge and dsicharge to ensure that the battery is activated. Please remember not to overcharge continually, or it will shorten the battery's life. Furthermore. It also needs three complete discharge/ charge cycles before starting to use it. Most users are used to using Alternating Current instead of a battery for power supply when they use laptops. Actually the battery needs to be used at least once or twice per month to release the battery power completely. Then fully charge the battery with AC power once. Please remember that it is always good for rechargeable batteries to use up the battery power before giving them a full charge. Because the li-ion battery used by laptop has its own laziness and would lose its activeness when being idle for long time. It needs to be reactivated.

3\ It is suggested to take out the battery from laptop when it uses AC power supply indoor to avoid having the battery get charged frequently. It is also suggested to shut down the laptop so that battery can be fully charged. Do not remove the AC power during charge. In addition, the power of battery can easily be used up and most laptops have only one battery.

For a common laptop, the best charge method is to turn off the laptop when its battery is being charged. The charge time will be shortened by 30% by this method.

Answer 2

A lithium polymer battery, otherwise known as a lipo battery, is, for the most part, based on the same technology that of which is used by batteries of the conventional lithium ion. The battery made of lithium polymer is contained within a polymer shell which typically weigh much less than that of the normal casings for batteries. This makes it ideal in powering small electrical devices, such as mobile phones. It is important to know how to properly charge one of these batteries, as failing to follow proper standard can destroy the battery, cause it to catch fire or cause it to explode.

1. You should first find yourself a battery charger that of which is specially designed to handle those of lithium technology batteries. This is necessary because a specially designed charger will include a sensor that detects a tiny drop of voltage that batteries of lithium type allow upon the completion of charging. This drop will cease the charging process. By using any other kind of charger, you are putting yourself at risk. A lithium battery charger may run between $20 to over $100.
2. Take a voltage test meter and determine the voltage of each cell in a lithium polymer battery that has multiple cells. Do this periodically. It is okay to skip this on occasion, but it is wise to test this every five to ten charges. If at any time a battery cell varies more than 0.1 volts from the rest of its cells, the voltage drop may not be properly read, which will bring back the dangers.
3. Connect the charger to the battery as per the charger manufacturer’s instructions, while the charger is off. If you want to fully charge the battery, set it to 4.2 volts. Turn on the charger.
4. The charger will probably take between four to six hours, and when it is complete, the charger will shut itself off. The typical charger will probably come with a timer so that you may determine a time when it will automatically turn off. Once complete, shut off the charger and take out the battery.

Answer 3

You would need an exclusive AAA battery recharger.
