Save A Little Power For Me

Hello Everyone,

The following are some simple suggestions which may help reduce battery drain on your Mobile device:

1.
When not in use, disable both the Bluetooth and/or WIFI transmitters.

2.
If possible, such as on the Samsung Blackjack 2 Smartphone, turn off the keyboard backlight or, in the alternative, reduce the time period which is automatically turns on.

3.
Reduce all display time-out periods.

4.
Lower the display brightness level. 

5.
Generally, charging from a standard outlet provides better battery power than charging from a computer via USB.
