How to Remove Battery From Acer Laptop? Both CMOS And Main Battery [2023]

Laptops have two types of batteries.

1. COMOS Battery
2. Power Laptop Battery

Today we will talk about both. First of all, let me tell you how to remove the Comos battery from the Acer laptop. And then, I will explain How to Remove The Power Battery From Acer Laptop?

The CMOS battery is your power source for the computer’s flash memory. A CMOS battery stores and maintains BIOS settings in the absence of electricity. Your CMOS battery is mounted on your motherboard, just like a regular watch battery is. If you need to remove your CMOS battery, you’ll need a screwdriver to do it, and it will take about ten minutes to do.

But on the other hand, a Power Battery is a normal battery that is used for powering up the laptop. It is big in size and it is rechargeable. whereas the CMOS battery is very tiny in size and is not rechargeable, it is a cell type of battery actually. The power or main battery of the laptop is easily removable with some clips or mechanical buttons, yes most laptops nowadays come with a non-removable battery.

Now, let’s discuss the detailed methods of removing both of these batteries:

How to Remove CMOS Battery From Acer Laptop? Step-by-Step Guide:

Here we have the step-by-step method of removing the CMOS Battery from an Acer laptop:

Step 1: 

Turn off your device and disconnect the power cable.

Step 2: 

Remove the Main Battery or the Power Battery.

If there is any stripped screw and you can't remove that, then read this linked article for how to remove a stripped screw.

 Step 4:

Now gently remove the back side case.

? Notes:
If your laptop has that old-style architecture, in which the backside cover isn't removable, then first open the hinge of your laptop, and then unplug the connection ribbons between the motherboard and wrist rest area (the touchpad and keypad section) and also remove the wifi card or any other display ribbons, etc. 
Then flip the motherboard, because the CMOS battery is on the backside.

Step 5:

Find your motherboard and examine it. The CMOS battery will be in the same position as a large watch battery, but it will be much more challenging to remove because it is on the motherboard and larger.

Step 6:

Now that you have the CMOS battery visible. Then try very gently with your screwdriver, to make it pop out of that little cradle in which it is plugged.

How to Fix an Acer Aspire Battery That Does Not Last Long

Acer computers and netbooks use Lithium-ion batteries. A laptop’s lithium-ion Battery contains a built-in processor which automatically calculates the charge remaining, and Windows-to-lithium-ion battery level calculation translates that into you. Often, the Battery reports false values, which can result in it stopping charging or dying unexpectedly. It can be fixed by “calibration,” which drains and refills the Battery completely.

1. Shut down the Aspire.
2. Inject the AC power adapter.
3. To begin charging the Battery, wait until the LED light turns solid blue.
4. Start your Acer Aspire 
5. Leave the AC adapter unplugged.
6. To activate the battery options, click the battery icon in the device tray.
7. Click the radio button if it isn’t already marked as “High Performance.”
8. Select “Change When the Computer Sleep” on the left pane to make it change while the computer is in sleep mode.
9. When each item in the “Battery” column is selected, use the drop-down box to remove it from the selection. Save your modifications.
10. Click Start Button & type “cmd” without quotation marks.
11. To get “cmd.exe” to run as an administrator, right-click the results, pick “Run as administrator,” and then enter your username and password.
