Using Airplane mode in Batterysaver you can disable your wireless adapter, turn off all of the firewall, windows update, anti-virus software services and kill any extraneous "internet" applications, like online storage services.

Some features to save charge of your laptop battery using this application are by

  • Start and stop processes;
  • Start and stop services; and
  • Enable and disable devices

One disadvantage is that you have you edit an xml file to configure the application, as there is no GUI available as of now.

    Lithium Ion batteries have a slightly higher voltage range and generate more heat. My suggestion is to purchase NiMH rechargeables – they are safer in a camera designed for regular AA batteries. You can purchase 4 AA NiMH 2500MAh Energizer batteries and a wall charger for $17-18 at Wal-Mart.
