How To Extend The Battery Life On Your Cell Phone

How can I extend the battery life on my cell phone?

For most cell phones, locking the keypad puts the phone into a powersave mode where none of the lights come on until you unlock the keypad. As a result, if it's in your pocket and something accidentally pushes a button, the cell phone will not come on every time and waste the battery. Keep your phone keypad locked to extend battery life. If you are in an area where you know there is no coverage, turn your phone off. Cell phones use more battery power constantly searching for a network than they do when the device is off itself.
