Today AussieBatt laptop battery experts share following ways to extend your Toshiba pa3594u-1bas laptop battery life when it’s running low.
1. Adjust Toshiba laptop screen brightness: A brighter screen will cause your battery life to decrease faster. If you are running low on power, try turning the screen’s brightness down as low as it can go while still remaining visible.

On almost all laptops, screen brightness is indicated by a sun icon, and pressing the smaller sun will decrease the brightness. On most laptops you can either press the key with the brightness labels on it to decrease the brightness, while others will require that you press the FN key and the key with the label.
2. Unplug connected devices: Many USB devices you plug into your laptop like hard drives, mice and smartphones are actually powered by your laptop computer. Therefore, if you are running off of Toshiba pa3594u-1bas battery, you will likely see increased drain if devices are plugged in.
When you are running low on power, try unplugging devices connected by USB. This is especially important if you are charging your smartphone or tablet with your laptop.
3. Activate your laptop’s battery saver mode: Most laptops have a built-in battery management feature that allows you to enable different profiles based on how you are using the laptop. One of the more useful settings is Battery Saver or Eco Mode. These modes have been developed to help extend the Toshiba pa3594u-1brs battery life when your Toshiba laptop battery is running low.
When activated, they will often manually override settings like screen brightness and turn off unnecessary services or connections like BlueTooth. To activate this on notebook PCs, you can usually click on the battery icon in the lower-right bar of the main Windows screen and select your power-saving mode.
4. Simplify your activities: Finally, along with closing apps you aren’t using, try simplifying what you are doing. Focus on one task. If you are writing a blog article, close everything not related to writing including communication apps like email and instant messaging.
The goal here is to try and stay in the same window or program, as switching programs will increase the drain of the battery. Sure, it won’t be a massive spike in battery usage, but staying in the same window or app will help increase the time you’ll be able to use your laptop on battery.
5. Turn off keyboard backlighting: A common feature of many newer laptops is a backlit keyboard. While useful when you are in a low light situation and need to see what keys you are hitting, the backlight does use battery power and can decrease your battery life.
Most laptops allow you to turn the backlight off from the keyboard, much like the screen brightness. The location of these buttons will be different for each laptop, so be sure to consult your user manual if you can’t find them.
