So what do you usually do (it doesn't have to be 1%, but just low)? Do you turn ofF whatever your using, or try in vain to look for the charger?


As for me, I look for my charger. I'm to addicted. xD
he did it, not me.

* off

Well, whenever my battery is low during school, I usually ask for someone's charger. If one wasn't available at the time, I would simply turn it off and hope that it won't die.

At home, I always have my charger connected to my laptop. n____n

I'll get to the charger if I want to keep using this something, but often just let it run out and charge it later. Even letting it get low is as I understand why the battery life on everything of mine seems to have decreased somewhat.

Also OP please don't emphasise the second F in off that much, it's hindering to read.

Whenever my phone or iPod gets low on power, I go look for thier chargers. My phone charger is always in my room, and my iPod charger hooked to my computer so I know where they are. Same with my DS or any other electronic I use.

If it's my laptop, I'll just shut it while I look for a charger/dig mine out of my backpack whenever I'm in class since that thing is absolutely vital in most cases...which is why I never really unplug it during class, that would mostly be when I'm in the student commons area. I tend to just let my DS run its course and power off, will only really save my data after any major hauls in the game.

Depending on the device...If it's my phone, I'll turn it off until I can get it to the charger. If it's my Zune, I just let it run until it dies. xD (I love my music, and a low battery message never stops me)

If I'm at home, I usually put it right on the charger. I'm not so glued to my mobile devices that I can't put them down when I'm at home. (Except for my Zune, which I usually have on and playing music at all times when it's possible...Music helps to kill the boredom...When I'm too bored, it makes me jaded and lazy)

Well, for my Ds I'm usually dashing around the house looking for my charger, I don't bother turning it off though,
For my laptop I always keep it plugged in when I'm on it because that little power bar in the corner of the screen irks me when I see it slowly getting lower, I just can't stand it!

I have my chargers in my backpack now, so if anything's at low power, even at work, I can plug it in. (I only plug in my phone or iPod in at work if they're nearly dead when I get in, though.)

Basically the only time I turn off anything is if my phone is nearly dead and I still have to walk somewhere. At that point no one's going to call, and it's either that or let the phone beep.

I'll make a proper signature when Pokecommunity gets a proper slogan

When I'm at home, nothing is ever at 1 percent. It's always above 75 percent, or I charge it. When I'm on the road, if my DS is low, I charge it using a car charger, but if it's not in there, then I'll squeeze every last drop I can out of it.

Hell, the laptop I'm using right now is charging at 100 percent. Makes the screen brighter.

Funnily enough, I was on my DS last night playing my Pokeymanz when my battery indicator turned red. I dashed over to where my charger was plugged in at and continued playing there even though there's no comfortable place to sit in that corner of my home. I suppose I could've unplugged the charger and moved it next to my bed, but that would involve unplugging either my laptop, my printer, my cellphone charger, my Internet modem, my wireless router or my fan, and that's just too much work to choose what could be unplugged.

I normally don't text enough to run the battery down. I only have to charge it once a week. As for my iPod, I charge it whenever possible

..yeah I never let anything get to 1%.

However, if it's really low and with my ipod I don't bother charging it for a few days. If it's my laptop, I leave it on charge for a few hours. My phone I generally don't notice if it has run out of battery. And as for my DS, whenever it gets to red then I'll put it on charge.

I think those are all that need charging.

It's not much of a big deal for me if anything dies with the exception of my phone. I'm the type of person who needs their phone in order to feel a sense of security since I know I'll have an open line of communication, if need be, with someone. Since I have an iPhone, it often turns off completely when I near 4% battery, so I never really make it to 1%. But anytime my phone reaches 10% battery, I tend to often worry that it'll die before I get a chance to do anything about it. Talk about a perfect way to ruin my day.
