Toshiba USB Sleep and Charge Utility Description

When the computer is shut down usually it can't help us with anything, but there are technologies that can make a system useful even when it is not running. One such innovation is Toshiba's USB sleep-and-charge which makes it possible for anyone who owns a notebook that supports this to power up external devices through a simple USB cable. There is even a special application that was devised just for this purpose and it is known as Toshiba USB Sleep and Charge Utility. Easy to install, but only usable on compatible laptops, this program aims to simplify the management of this technology and to optimize its usage. Through a simple interface the user will be able to activate and configure the USB Sleep and Charge function. Those who are willing to use this facility will certainly be glad to be able to recharge the battery of their phone, for example, while the system is powered off, hibernating or in sleep mode. As soon as the main function is enabled, it is possible to choose a power supply mode (auto or alternate) and configure other parameters. When the notebook is running on battery power, charging external devices will draw energy from the laptop and you have the possibility to set a limit to this. Thus, if you want to reserve a certain level of power that should remain in the main unit, you can set a lower limit of remaining battery life using a dedicated slider in the main window of Toshiba USB Sleep and Charge Utility. To keep you posted about the current status of the battery, there is also a dedicated indicator in the same module. As a conclusion, one thing it is certain, namely that for the compatible laptops this software can actually prove quite valuable. Reviewed by Olivian Puha, last updated on January 23rd, 2014
