Batteries age quicker they're hot for a long period of time, and can destroy other hardware parts, causing system freezing or worse. [br][br]Is your laptop or phone getting hot? Does it get too hot often? Follow these tips to protect your laptop or smartphone from hot weather and overheating.[br][br]Know Whether Your Laptop or Smartphone Is at the Right Temperature[br][br]Although it's perfectly normal for computers and smartphones to get warm (thanks to the battery heating up) there is, of course, an upper limit to how hot these devices can get before they start overheating.[br][br]The general guideline for laptops is to keep it running below 122°F (50°C), with some more leeway for newer processors.

Anyone who has been in a closed up car on a hot day can tell you that it gets really, really hot, and our skin isn't the only thing that hates hot weather. [br][br]If you leave your phone or computer in direct sunlight or baking in a hot car, even touching it can burn your hand. It gets worse if it's playing music, taking a call or charging since the battery is already working up a sweat.[br][br]Make sure your laptop or cell phone is turned off in those burning areas and try to only use them in the cooler shade. One option is to cover it with a shirt or sit with it under a tree. If you're in a car, try pointing the air conditioning vent in its general direction.[br][br]Continue Reading Below[br][br]Wait to Use Your Hot Laptop or Smartphone[br][br]When moving from a hot area to a more temperate one, wait until your laptop or smartphone has cooled off a bit (returned to normal room temperature) before turning it back on.[br][br]This also applies when taking your laptop out of its case, where it might have been trapped in heat.[br][br]Turn Off the Most Battery-Intensive Applications[br][br]Turn off the most Not only do features like GPS and 3G/4G or the highest screen brightness tax your laptop or smartphone battery life, but they also make your battery run hotter.[br][br]Similarly, use your device on its battery-saving (e.g., "power saver") setting to automatically use less battery and reduce battery heat.[br][br]Some devices have what's called an Airplane Mode that can instantly quit broadcasting on all radios, which means it will disable Wi-Fi, GPS, and your cellular connection.

These stands not only draw heat away from your laptop but they also position your laptop ergonomically.[br][br]Pop your laptop into a cooling stand if it's getting too hot. It's really not a big deal if you're already using your laptop on a desk because the cooling stand will barely change how it's positioned.[br][br]Shut Down Your Laptop or Smartphone When Not in Use[br][br]When it's really hot, perhaps the best thing you can do is turn off your device, reserving the power for when you actually need to use it.[br][br]Some devices will turn off automatically when they get too hot, so it makes complete sense that shutting down all of the power to every component is one of the quickest ways to cool down the phone or laptop.[br][br]After 15 minutes of being in a cooler space, you can safely turn it back on and use it normally.
