iPad battery recharge/management tips

share tips ipad battery management! here mine:

1. keep plugged in while sleep. developed nightly ritual iphone , works ipad.
   
2. buy car charger. me, order of operations when in car is: start engine, plug in iphone/ipad, punch in gps coordinates if necessary, drive off.
   
3. keep usb charger @ work desk can charge through computer if necessary.
   
4. turn down brightness, when reading. screen bright find average brightness level bright. never turn brightness above 50% unless i'm looking @ high-res photos.
   
5. receive new emails manually, or have them pushed 30 minutes. above overkill - need ipad wake , check new emails every 5 minutes?

 

fyi... push vs. fetch mail depends on how receive e-mails. if ~20 emails day, push save more battery because it's using data when receive 20 emails.

if have set fetch every 30 minutes, checking twice hour, or 24 times per day. if getting 20 emails, "wasting" battery checking more frequently.

difference not huge, letting know fetch not battery conscious method email of time, if receive 5-10 emails day.
