Depending on your system’s configuration and your application
usage, a fully charged Lithium-Ion main battery should allow
you to run your eo Ultra-Mobile PC for 4 ~ 5 hours. Add the
secondary Lithium Polymer battery and you could see more than
7 hours of runtime.
Operations that will significantly reduce battery life include, but
are not limited to, the following:
1. Using external bus-powered USB optical, floppy and hard
disk drives
2. Using wireless communications devices, including the
internal wireless networking card, optional 3G data module
Bluetooth adapter, or bus powered USB devices.
3. Using high-brightness display settings, 3D screen savers, or
other computationally intensive programs such as games,
media players and 3D graphics applications.
4. Running the computer in maximum performance mode.
5. Using the computer in overly-hot environmental conditions.
Using the Battery for the First Time
Before using the computer on battery power for the first time,
the battery should be charged for at least six hours. Also, the
Smart Battery IC within the battery pack should be calibrated in
order to get an accurate reporting of the remaining battery life.
