Windows minimize consumption

In addition to using a few programs, the operating system itself spends a good amount of energy. Your primary mission as saving energy is to allow devices to rest when not in use. The heavyweights are the screen, DVD, hard drive and processor.

Bajar the brightness level is essential. You can usually get through the key Function (Fn) and sliders. Can not you see anything? In this case, use BattCursor to lower the brightness automatically after a certain period of inactivity. A curious as you can perform is to put a dark wallpaper.

More complicated is to rest the hard drive, generally what we need. If you have enough RAM, try to disable virtual memory from Control Panel> System> Advanced> Performance. This will prevent Windows makes use of the hard drive when you can use the RAM. Defragment drives is another good idea, it will make disk access faster and more efficient.

Minimize the CPU usage goes to follow the recommendations of the previous sections. That is, use simple alternatives, not having many programs open and close everything that is not strictly necessary.

The hardware also has

Of course, the hardware plays an important role in energy consumption, and we must control its use. As already mentioned, DVD drive consumes a large amount of energy, So it is not advisable to abuse it. Leave a DVD inserted in the reader is a lousy measure. Windows has the annoying habit of reading the content as you open a File Explorer.

Some laptops have the option to remove the disk drive, literally. Is obtained at the same time a reduction in equipment weight and lower power consumption. It is a measure somewhat radical, but quite efficient and simple, if not regularly use the reader.

Any component that does not require to be disconnectedIncluding PCMCIA cards (even if disabled), USB devices like mice and keyboards and, of course, MP3 players connected via USB to recharge your battery.

Probably your computer has Bluetooth, WiFi or other capabilities (compatibility with e-SATA drives, integrated audio card ...) that can be disabled or from the system BIOS or from Windows. If you're not using, turn it off.

Hibernate instead of suspending

Suspend the system is very convenient because you can return to previous state immediately. However, in this way the computer never shuts off completely, So it continues to consume certain energy. If you're not using your computer for a while hibernate instead of suspend.

For short breaks is better SleepBecause enough energy is spent reading the data written to disk.

Adjusts the power plan

Adjust the power plan is a critical step. While you'll generally predefined power plans quite adequate, there will always be the most optimal. How to adjust them in Windows Vista going to go to Control Panel > Power Options. In this section you can change a few aspects of the conduct of the cover or how long it takes Windows to turn off the screen.

If you want to create a new plan (something recommended, rather than modify existing ones) click on Create a power plan. Once it is created, we recommend that pressures Change Plan Settings and then you click Change advanced power settings. In this section you can configure all the features of the plan from a single window instead of in three or four separate sections, as was achieved under the "non-advanced."

Some programs such as Vista Battery Saver and BattCursor can automate the exchange energy plan as if it is using the battery or not.

Moreover, Powerslave change the energy plan by time of day.

Nvidia promises 200 notebook models with Sandy Bridge and its graphics

Nvidia promises 200 notebook models with Sandy Bridge and its graphics

Nvidia announces Press Release to that in the first half of 2011 a record 200 models with Intel's new CPU platform "Sandy Bridgecome "and a GeForce GPU on the market. Some of the manufacturers Acer, Alienware, Asus, Dell, Fujitsu, HP, Lenovo, Samsung, Sony and Toshiba.

Most of the models should have between 6 and 9 January will be announced if, in the U.S. Computer CES takes place. However, it is considered bad time for notebook manufacturers - new models in January complicate the sale of the Christmas season assembled remnants. Intel is therefore the launch of the dual-core version of Sandy Bridge postponed to February have. Only then should the manufacturers introduce models with this processor in the market.

The announcement suggests that the PC maker with the power of the improved integrated Intel graphics not quite satisfied. Especially for users interested in games it is unlikely to little. With Optimus Nvidia is ready for a technology that allows users to between integrated Intel graphics and more efficient to change Nvidia GPU.

For AMD and its ATI graphics chip division is the large number of Intel-based notebook models with Nvidia graphics not good news. The collaboration between Intel and Nvidia more difficult for the processor and its competitors Radeon Series competition. In second quarter of 2010 had AMD in the graphics market for discrete solutions still can position before Nvidia. This comfortable position, it threatens to lose.

For Nvidia, the market for Windows notebooks is more important than Apple Reportedly think about it, to give in cheaper Macbooks with Sandy Bridge to a Nvidia chip. It is said that Apple consider the improved Intel graphics in this segment are sufficient.

Google denies use of camera drones

Google denies use of camera drones

The silent aircraft of the German company Microdrones be tested or used. Previously, the "Business Week had reported in a scoop of an alleged co-operation.

Google plans apparently do not use drones photographed for its card services. Spokesman Stefan Keuchel has denied a report by the Economic weeks now.

Google was not aware of any relationships with Microdrones said Keuchel the newspaper picture. "We are always looking for ways to improve our card services like Google Maps or Google Earth. As part of this effort, we explore many different technologies." Drones were tested but not yet used.

The German manufacturer had Microdrones Claimed to the economic week, are already in discussion with Google. "The UAVs are well suited to provide more timely recording of the map service Google Earth," said Microdrones boss Sven Juerss.

The unmanned aircraft are flying over a range of several thousand meters and a speed of up to 80 km / h automatically entire neighborhoods. This would allow Google to also inspect farms, which invest in the company just said Juerss. Google did not comment on the request of the business week.

Data protectionists warn meanwhile warned that the drones pose deeper problems than Google Street View. The planes are almost silent and penetrate undetected into areas that are not seen on photos from the road to even on conventional aerial photographs. Flying robots could shoot through windows, or supply images from gardens and balconies.

Juerss defends itself against the allegations, his drones were a ‘Big Brother of the Air’: "It had always been forbidden to enter by means of photography and film in the private sphere. Our Drones have changed this legal situation."

BAK and Car battery

BAK and Car battery

$ 300,000,000 bet car battery BAK: results in 3,5 years

Neighbors and BYD Battery Co., Ltd. Shenzhen BAK (CBAK.Nasdaq), new energy vehicles in the table, who spent 300 million U.S. dollars in chips. The mobile phone, laptop battery based industry companies, but also put into the development of battery vehicles, electric vehicles in the future hope to grab a slice of the feast.

"Companies are prepared, this investment at least 3-5 years to see results." BAK Battery, vice president of marketing, said Cui Ke.

In the IT, communications to the development of small profit margins today, seeking growth next important issue is the battery manufacturers. For BAK Battery, this point is not only a good prospect, but not every competitor can follow up.

Thousands of units per year car sales in the world, as long as one tenth of the vehicle battery, is a huge market. Cui Ke dreaming, where he went to the BAK Battery is also good prospects. Although their current business Liucheng from cell phone batteries, three come from HP, Dell laptop battery OEM.

BAK said it would take 300 million U.S. dollars budget to build new plant in Tianjin, the production of power batteries. At present, the initial investment over the plant, are a number of pilot light electric vehicle batteries.

"End of the year to pilot car battery." Cui Ke said. But when it can achieve returns, Cui Ke estimate, "at least another 3-5 years." Currently, they focus on supply of electric bicycles. Capacity of the National LEV, Tianjin has one third of the world, this is a new plant site BAK Battery, Tianjin, an important reason.

Mozambique's strategy is: start doing light electric vehicle batteries began the transition to a car battery. This allows a gradual transition in technology, you will not be up to several years of investment of the collapse.

From single cells, to a dozen batteries, to the hundreds of battery packs, it seems that only numbers. But how to ensure the consistency of the battery, and supporting the corresponding cell control system, as a constraint to technological bottlenecks in the industry. Who can overcome technical bottlenecks, whoever will be the biggest beneficiaries of new energy vehicles. Of course, people who can keep up with changes, but also share the feast.

Risk is, who is also not allowed after 3-5 years in the end security can not be profitable, and pre-investment is real money. Cui Ke said, although there are 863 projects funded, and local government in terms of investment and financing some of the green light to open, the pressure is still very large funds.

Opportunities?

A few years ago, a Nokia cell phone battery asking price 200 yuan, and now can be purchased for tens of dollars for cell phone manufacturers do everywhere. "You can not always be a mobile phone battery, the secondary market price war is too cruel," Zhongguancun (3.93, -0.32, -7.53%), a communications equipment sales sigh, as far as he knew, and even some hand-made battery workshop .

Price war with notebook manufacturers and the rise of the Internet, the cost of laptop batteries sharp compression. In response to the recovery of Korean battery manufacturer, BAK Battery, recently added two production lines in order to return with the cost advantages of scale.

Behind these self-help measures, China battery manufacturers generally helpless. Electric vehicles are being introduced the New Deal, it seems to provide them with an opportunity. It is understood that, in addition to BAK outside the few big battery manufacturers have begun to varying degrees, R & D of electric vehicle batteries.

"For many battery manufacturers, this is indeed good news." Changshu, Jiangsu Province by the Triangle Institute of Technology, Changsha, environmentally friendly energy Yongkang said. He said that the country vigorously promote the policy of new energy vehicles will certainly promote the development of related products market.

But he also believes that the field of automotive batteries if you want to Denver, companies must have a considerable accumulation, "Not every company can do" because it eventually hundreds of millions of investment.

This input becomes most uncertain future is the direction of electric vehicle development problems. Detection of related technologies, standards are not clear, hybrid transition period, recovery of raw materials costs and difficult environmental problems caused by, battery manufacturers have increased the risk of betting.

According to market analysis, refer to BYD's stock price, and now the concept of new energy vehicles difficult to have confidence in the stock market a substantial boost. Meanwhile, the uncertain prospects of the technology and policy, but also the most industry funds do not want to touch the risk.

"BYD's warehouse, but also piled ten million battery scrap the experiment." Difficulty of the experiment, Cui Ke company has prepared, but he said the company had not expected to lose money in the end the number of early.

Sand Yongkang prediction: "Finally, only a few can be successful."

Fuel cell products made in China exported bulk

Fuel cell products made in China exported bulk

January 5 reports: Along with the "Water and Sustainable Development" as the theme of the 2008 World Expo closing of Spain, the Chinese fuel cell products in the international arena, the successful debut also drew the curtain.

Impression in people's past, the fuel cell is more of a veiled high-tech products, very green, very advanced, but still far from practical. A company called climbing the emergence of hydrogen energy industry to change this situation. Has now developed a series of fuel cell products, and has applied to the tour buses, bicycles, portable power and other occasions.

Bottlenecks due to technical restrictions, the domestic fuel cell in the past mostly as a demonstration purpose. Even if only as an occasional sample sales, and not a batch. The climbing equipment, the fuel cell industry, 21 electric bicycle export to Spain. Fuel cells and fuel cell products, though the sample is only one word, but the meaning is very different. As the product not only satisfied with the work to stabilize, and must have the durability, practicality, cost, appearance and other aspects as well as considerations. In addition for different markets, the relevant certification was necessary.

The export volume fuel cell products is another important significance lies in its purely domestic! This not only refers to the bicycle body also includes a key raw material in fuel cells: catalyst, membrane, carbon paper and the localization of bipolar plates. In which the catalyst and membrane by climbing industry independent research and development and production. Long been neglected domestic raw materials in the practical proof of its outstanding performance in par with international similar products. At the same time the localization of key materials, so often been criticized for the cost of fuel cells can be effectively controlled. Since most of the past, the key raw material to be imported, which makes the cost of the fuel cell control was clutched in the hands of foreign companies, the stakes just look at China's IT industry will be able to get some idea. As foreign enterprises to master the most upstream CPU technology, most IT enterprises has become an overseas Chinese enterprises assembly plant and the client, the price level determined entirely by the upstream firm.

Because these products excellent performance in Spain, climbing industry, the company's Spanish and Italian partner is actively planning for vehicles driven on public roads in the matter, in 2009 there will be more Chinese-made fuel cell products in Europe.
