Increase Nokia Battery Backup & Life With Two Simple Cautions

Nokia Battery Backup Guide
Battery Backup is one of the important factors we consider while we invite a mobile. Some of my friends always ask me (they believe that I am a mobile expert, it’s up to them) for why their mobile have no good battery backup even though the company mentioned with a long battery backup in the specifications?
Can you imagine the reason?
I have made a research on them and found two reasons for their low battery backup and short battery life. Those two things are
1. Usage of mismatched battery chargers.
2. Uneven Charging schedules.
Yes! I am sure. These are the things which I haven’t made in my mobile usage, which makes the difference.
We can found those two things if we go through the Nokia manual, Nokia recommends those two things use only Original chargers and Charge the battery on the low battery warning only. But they didn’t follow them, they charge the battery when and where ever they finds a charger, no matter what ever may be the charger, they only consider about the pin compatibility. If the pin is compatible, they feel like just plug it yar!
Every product needs some maintenance, isn’t it?
In the same way battery (not only mobile batteries) need complete cycles for charging and discharging.
Coming to the Usage of Mismatched Chargers
I am going to explain it by taking one electrical equation (I did my B.Tech in Electrical and Electronics).
Power = Voltage * Current, ( DC)
A small change in any of these voltage or current will directly affects the POWER, I would like to explain it by taking a well known example and the example is the behavior or response of an electric lamp in high voltage and low voltage.
If the voltage is high, it lights very bright and if the voltage is low, it lights dim.
So, if we use fake chargers, we inject low or high power to the battery, which will definitely have an adverse effect on our battery life and backup.
Nokia batteries and charger are designed with some specific voltage and current ratings. They can be seen on the battery and charger. The fake charger with the same specifications may not have the same voltage and current ratings. Using such chargers will definitely affect our batteries in another way.
So my suggestion is to use original chargers and charge the battery on low battery warning only.

Great information, i will implement this to my mobile to improve its battery life.
Hey, what’s up? Great stuff. When I winter my bike I always use my battery tender. It has added to the life of my battery, in fact I have not changed my battery in six years and my ride starts at a moments notice. Just a trickle charger is not enough you need to use the tecnology of the battery tender.
