How to recognize the Dell Inspiron E1705 Battery error and calibrate it

Sept. 15, 2009 - PRLog -- One of the great advantages of using a laptop computer is its ability to operate it in a portable manner. This is achieved by the use of a battery as its power source. However, most users take the battery for granted and are unaware that it will eventually fail.

Most laptops today are powered by Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries. These are a great alternative to the older technologies since they have a much higher power to weight ratio, are not prone to the memory effect phenomenon and are inherently more environmentally friendly. However, much like the older battery chemistries, they do have a limited lifetime. Although the older chemistries rates of failure were proportional to the number of charging cycles, the capacity of today’s Lithium-ion batteries diminish with age.

Generic Dell Inspiron E1705 Battery(http://www.everbatt.com/dell-inspiron-e1705-laptop-battery-cells-6600mah-p-24152.html) are produced at the same manufacturing plants that originally produced the laptop battery for the computer manufacturer; batteries are simply an out-sourced item for the computer maker. But these dell batteries may also be made at facilities whose standards are not as high as the primary plant's and the only way to ensure that you have purchased a quality battery is to check the reputation of the supplier or the seller, make sure that they provide a liberal warrantee and test the battery by charging it in your computer soon after it is received.

When you find that your dell laptop computer does not hold its charge as long as it used to, or when your system’s power management utility software indicates that its charge level is decreasing, you will need to find a replacement dell laptop battery to maintain your computer's operating time. Finding the correct Dell Inspiron E1705 Battery is generally a matter of searching for a battery that will fit your computer's make and model number. In addition, the specifications for the battery are usually found imprinted on the charger. And the power indicator would flash and create a weird “buzzing” sound while the computer's plugged into outlet power. Also, it seemed as if the power wasn't connected at all sometime.

Then please follow the below steps to calibrate the Dell Inspiron E1705  Battery and to make sure whether you should buy a new one.

Firstly: Charging the Battery Pack
