Hi everyone,
At home, I normally plug my Macbook (new model) into the mains when running it.
But I know that with mobile/cell phones, you`re supposed to run the battery down before recharging in order to preserve the battery`s capacity in the longer term.
So I`m wondering, when run my Macbook while it`s plugged into the mains, is it running off the battery and being constantly recharged - and if so, won`t this deplete the battery`s capacity quite quickly over time? - or is it running directly from the mains current?
What`s better if I want to preserve my battery as well as possible: running it plugged into the mains, or running the battery down before recharging it?
