I did not use my spare battery for months. I have problem in
recharging it.
If you happen to leave your battery pack to go through an
extended period of self-discharge, say more than three
months, the battery voltage level will become too low and
needs to be Pre-Charged (to bring the battery voltage level
high enough) before it automatically (for Li-Ion only) resumes
its normal Fast Charge.
2.4 Battery Maintenance
To maintain the battery pack's maximum capacity, you should
occasionally let the
T1000 deplete its battery power completely
before recharging.
To carry out a complete depletion of the battery, disconnect the AC
adapter and let your T1000
consume the remaining battery power.
To speed up the depletion, use the HDD as much as possible.
When the battery is empty, wait for the T1000 to cool down
(especially the battery). The temperature should be within 15-25°C
(59-77°F). Then insert the AC adapter to recharge the battery.
2.5 Power Consumption
Select Power Options in the Control Panel or Power Mode in Smart
Manager (3.1 GIGABYTE Smart Manager Functions) to adjust
Power Consumption.
