Getting the most out of your Sideklick starts with simple battery habits.
Whether you use Sideklick for mobile gaming, repetitive tapping, AFK gameplay, or hands-free sessions, proper charging and usage habits can help maintain battery performance and keep your device ready whenever you need it.
Follow these battery-saving tips to improve your Sideklick experience.
1. Fully Charge Sideklick Before Long Sessions
Before starting an extended gaming session, make sure your Sideklick has enough battery.
Charging your device before longer use helps avoid interruptions during:
-
AFK gaming sessions
-
Grinding sessions
-
Long tapping tasks
-
Hands-free gameplay
A fully charged Sideklick gives you more freedom to focus on your game without worrying about stopping midway.
For the best results during long sessions, charge it while it's mounted on the stand, this keeps the device grounded for continuous gameplay.
2. Avoid Waiting Until the Battery Is Completely Empty
One of the easiest ways to maintain rechargeable battery health is avoiding frequent deep discharges.
Instead of waiting until Sideklick completely runs out of power:
-
Recharge when battery levels are low.
-
Keep it ready for your next gaming session.
-
For better battery maintenance, avoid storing Sideklick with a fully depleted battery for extended periods.
Consistent charging habits can help maintain long-term battery performance.
3. Use Sideklick Only When Needed
Leaving any electronic device powered on when you are not using it wastes battery.
When your gaming session is complete:
-
Stop the tapping action.
-
Turn off Sideklick.
-
Store it safely until your next use.
Simple power management can extend the time between charges.
4. Avoid Overcharging for Extended Periods
Modern rechargeable batteries include protection systems, but good charging habits are still recommended.
For better battery care:
-
Disconnect Sideklick after it has finished charging when convenient.
-
For optimal battery care, avoid keeping Sideklick connected to power for extended periods when it is not needed.
-
Use a reliable USB-C charging cable.
This helps keep your charging routine consistent.
5. Use the Correct Charging Cable
Sideklick uses USB-C charging.
For the best charging experience:
-
Use a quality USB-C cable.
-
Avoid damaged cables.
-
Avoid loose charging connections.
-
Charge from a reliable power source.
Using a reliable USB-C cable can help maintain consistent charging performance and reliability.
6. Store Sideklick Properly When Not Using It
How you store your device between gaming sessions can affect battery health.
For longer storage:

Keep Sideklick in a dry place.
-
Avoid extreme heat or cold.
-
Do not store it completely empty for long periods.
-
Keep it protected from dust and moisture.
Proper storage helps keep your device ready for future use.

In enclosed areas with poor airflow.
Keeping your device at normal temperatures helps protect battery longevity.

Making power-off part of your routine helps ensure your device is ready when you need it.

Planning to use Sideklick away from home?
Charge beforehand.
This is especially useful for:

Long waiting periods

Before starting a long session:
-
Confirm Sideklick is positioned correctly.
-
Test your tapping location.
-
Make sure the device is not unnecessarily running.
-
Verify your game is responding correctly.
A properly configured setup prevents wasted battery from failed taps or repeated adjustments.
11. Avoid Frequent Power Cycling During Sessions
Repeatedly turning Sideklick on and off during short intervals may not be necessary. For a smoother experience, set up your device, choose the desired mode, and allow it to run during your session. Turn off Sideklick when you have finished using it to help conserve battery.
For normal gaming sessions:
-
Set up your tapping location.
-
Select the correct mode.
-
Start your session.
-
Turn off the device when finished.
A simple workflow provides the best balance between convenience and battery usage.

Dust or debris around the tapping area can affect touchscreen contact and may cause
unnecessary adjustments.
Keep your Sideklick setup clean:
-
Wipe the device when needed.

Keep the tapping area clear.

Store it properly after use.
A clean setup helps you spend less time fixing positioning issues and more time gaming.
