Productivity 2007 is an industry-standard benchmark that provides a battery life rating and a performance rating based on common office scenarios. In our tests, we focus solely on the battery life rating. MobileMark 2007 Figure 1: MobileMark 2007 Productivity 2007 battery life score for the Acer Aspire Timeline 4810TZ notebook system. Trafaret dlya pisjma kosaya linejka. Oct 8, 2007 - The MobileMark benchmarks test the behavior of a mobile computer running solely on battery power. There are four separate battery life test.

Credit Stuart Goldenberg This is a story of truth, greed and the American Way. Oh, and also laptop battery-life benchmarks. Two things about battery-life measurements for laptops: First, they usually bear little relationship to reality. I don’t know about you, but my “five-hour” battery often dies halfway between J.F.K.

Second, laptop ads always use that essential tool of wiggle-roomers everywhere, “Up to.” As in, “Up to five hours.” Folks, “up to” is one of the greatest cop-outs in the English language. You know what? I’ve got a laptop that gets “up to” 1,000 hours on a charge! Because “up to” just means “something below this number.” Well, so what, right? Why pick on laptop makers?

Every industry does it, right? In 2003, the digital camera industry had a similar problem. Every company was advertising its cameras’ battery life in overblown terms.

Each had its own testing protocol, none representative of real life. Pretty soon, consumers realized that the battery statistics were basically meaningless. It developed a standardized battery-life test. You take one photo every 30 seconds — half with the flash on, half with the flash off.

• The control package includes an ergonomically positioned two-hand safety switch for added operator safety • Operates in manual or automatic mode • Digital displays of “real-time” bend angle and parts counter are standard • Desired bend angles are easily inputted with keypad entry * All electrical components are within UL compliance.

You zoom all the way in or all the way out before every shot. You leave the screen on all the time. After every 10 shots, you turn off the camera for awhile. In other words, you test the camera pretty much the way people would use it in the real world, erring on the side of conservatism.

Nowadays, all cameras are tested and advertised this way. And CIPA ratings now match up with reality. But laptops are more complicated, right? Many more factors determine battery life: what you’re doing, how bright the screen is, what wireless features are turned on, and so on. Yet other industries have faced this problem, too.

Cellphones, for example: The battery dies a lot faster when you’re making calls than when you’re just carrying the thing in your pocket. Cars: You generally get much better mileage on the highway than in the city. Even iPods: You get much better battery life when you’re playing music rather than video. So their manufacturers do the only logical thing — they give you the worst-case/best-case numbers.

When you shop for a cellphone, you see, “4 hours talk time/300 hours standby.” When you shop for a car, you see “26 m.p.g. City/32 highway.” When looking over an iPod, you see “24 hours of music playback/6 hours of video.” And everybody’s happy. Advertisement But with laptops, what do we get? “Up to five hours.” This is important, because battery life has become a huge selling point.

People have finally managed to unlearn the Megahertz Myth (hallelujah!), so they’re looking at battery life as a crucial buying factor. Why doesn’t the computer industry invent a standard battery test? Actually, they have.
