Why Do Tablet Batteries Die?
Tablet batteries are made from lithium-ion, which is a common type used by most devices these days. They are safe to use when maintained properly, but there are times when they just stop working. Here are some reasons:
- Overcharging: Overcharging is one of the common reasons why tablet batteries stop working. Keeping your device plugged in for hours can damage the battery life because it is taking in too much electricity. Always follow the complete charging instructions of the device.
- Overheating: Whether you like it or not, your tablet can overheat when it is used too long. It can also overheat when it is using too much processing power from some applications. When this happens, it may lessen its lifespan.
- System Problems: The ThinkPad may work flawlessly at first, but due to extensive usage and exposure to heat and cold, the system itself can develop issues. These can lead to battery problems as well since the power control is connected to the system itself.
- Physical Trauma: If the Tab keeps bumping into things or falling on the floor, it can also affect the battery life of the device. It may also damage the screen.
