How to Revive a Dead Laptop Battery

  1. Put the dead laptop battery in a sealed plastic bag.
  2. Put the bagged hp mini 1000 battery in the freezer for about 12 hours.
  3. Take the bag out of the freezer, and let the battery warm up to room temperature, drying it occasionally with a towel if it appears damp.
  4. Put the battery back into your laptop.
  5. Charge the battery as much as possible, then leave the laptop on in order discharge it completely. Repeat this step 3-4 times.
  6. Your formerly-dead nikon d80 battery should now be much more usable, if not totally restored.

This actually sounds like a great and effective idea for restoring battery life. It works with regular batteries and I believe that it can work nicely with my laptop battery. I still have my "dead" battery at home and have 2 replacements that I carry around with the laptop. Hopefully after testing this process I will be able to use the dead one or at least gain a little more life in essential situations.
