10 golden tips for cell batteries

The very main problem with the usage of cell is battery charging,which we come across several times.since being uncommunicative immediately is alien thing in this world now a days,which happens when we run out of battery power.so here are my tips to get long life for cell battery.
1. Get rid of the little sound that the phone makes when you press a key. You should find how to do that in your phone's settings.
2.Use a louder ringtone instead of the vibration alert whenever possible. Ringtones drain lesser energy.
3.you can adjust - and reduce - the backlight timeout. Make it as low as possible.
4.Always treat your mobile-phone battery with care. Do not drop or hit it against any hard objects. And try to take extra care of the metal contact plates as they determine the connection between the mobile phone and the battery.
5.Turn OFF the phone before removing the battery. Many phone users neglect this important step, which ultimately reduces the overall performance of the battery.
6.Avoid exposing battery in the sun, as extremely high temperature reduces the capacity of the battery permanently. This commonly occurs in cases where phone owners leave their phones in the cars parked under direct sunlight or kept for charging in sunlight hit area in a room.
7.If you have a dual mode "digital and analog" phone, this one is very important... when you travel in an "Analog Area" and you know you won't need your phone for a while, turn it off, since the analog system is tougher on cell phone batteries. Digital phones actually have power management features - similar to those of your computer - that analog phones don't have.
8.The NiCad and NiMH batteries are subject to the "" to a large and small extent respectively.
Memory Effect:Suppose you recharge your phone battery every time when your battery is 60% discharged. Eventually, it will so occur that as soon as the phone gets discharged by 60%, it will "forget" that the battery has the 40% charge remaining. It will hence show the "Battery Low" indication. The rest of the 40% charge is wasted (You cannot recover it). This simply leads to a huge reduction in talk-time and standby time.
9.To get rid of memory effect in NiCad type,battery must be discharged and recharged fully on every recharge cycle.
10.To get rid of memory effect in NiMH type,battery must be discharged fully on every 20th recharge cycle.
