Checking Battery Power - Asus R2Hv Hardware User Manual

Checking Battery Power

The battery system implements the Smart Battery standard under the Windows environ-
ment, which allows the battery to accurately report the amount of charge left in the battery.
A fully-charged battery pack provides the Notebook PC a few hours of working power. But
the actual figure varies depending on how you use the power saving features, your general
work habits, the CPU, system memory size, and the size of the display panel.

NOTE: You will be warned when battery power is low. If you continue to ignore the
low battery warnings, the UltraMobilePC eventually enters suspend mode (Windows
default uses STR).

see in your system.
WARNING! Suspend-to-RAM (STR) does not last long when the battery power is
depleted. Suspend-to-Disk (STD) is not the same as power OFF. STD requires a small
amount of power and will fail if no power is available due to complete battery deple-
tion or no power supply (e.g. removing both the power adapter and battery pack).
