Battery Recalibration
Utility will not work unless the Toughbook is connected to an functioning AC Adapter
•
Once initiated, the Battery Recalibration Utility will log out of windows, reboot the machine and enter a
•
special BIOS mode
Useful for batteries that have shorter than
•
expected run times
Resets the expected power levels at each state,
•
effectively resetting the meaning of 0-100%
Not the same as "refreshing" a Ni-Mh battery that
•
has "memory" issues
Utility recalibrates the battery level by fully
•
charging and discharging the main battery and
logging each state during that period of time
