      ASUS Instant On powered by SHE II Technology

      Instant On

      Super Hybrid Engine II incorporates elements of its SHE predecessor and builds on the vitals of better battery performance. The Instant On feature allows notebooks to resume in under 2 seconds* and stay in standby for up to 15 days* . Importantly, should battery levels fall below 5%, data is automatically saved and secured on the hard drive*.

      *Resuming from hibernation on a mainstream notebook can typically take 30-60s.
      *Normal standby time before battery drains on mainstream notebooks is 3-5 days
      *Removing or draining the battery when a notebook is left in standby will lose the resume data and potentially a users work!
