When using expansion devices for connectivity, such as HDMI converters, it's essential to understand how they impact battery drainage. Though extenders may appear small, they can reduce run time far more than anticipated—especially when poorly configured. To improve energy efficiency while using dongles, begin by prioritizing certified products. Seek out devices with minimal wattage draw like IEEE 802.11u-compliant. Steer clear of no-name adapters that frequently omit power-saving features.

Always disconnect peripherals when offline. Even in idle mode, many dongles leak small currents, and this silent power suck can deplete charge—especially on ultrabooks operating on limited charge. If your device offers several connection points, use a active expansion base for external storage like external hard drives, so your battery isn’t forced to compensate for inefficiency.

Keep your dongle’s drivers current. Manufacturers often release updates that correct power leaks. On Windows 10, navigate to Power Management tab and activate the option to Put device to sleep when idle. On macOS, visit System Preferences and limit background activity to minimize peripheral drain.

Avoid using dongles that demand constant high bandwidth unless absolutely necessary. For instance, a network extender that repeatedly reconnects can consume 2–3x more power. Position the dongle to maximize connection quality—this reduces RF output. If needed, use a USB extension cable to position it optimally like microwave sources.

Finally, analyze peripheral drain using native diagnostics. Windows 11 offers Battery Usage, while Apple Silicon Macs provides Energy Impact. These tools show which peripherals are draining fastest. If a dongle consistently ranks high, swap for a low-power alternative like integrated Bluetooth that uses optimized hardware.

By making minor adjustments and اکتیو دانگل being mindful of usage, you can significantly extend battery life without compromising performance.
