Hi guys,
There are alot of questions on here based around the whole "should I drain my battery or will it be ok plugged into the outlet all the time etc", but I cant seem to find the answer to the following question:
How much energy is used to keep the charger 'trickling' between 95% and 100%? I assume it would use more energy to fully charge it from below 10%, but does anyone know what kind of a difference in consumption it would be?
I only ask because im trying to keep energy bills down this year since a massive hike in prices for the UK and I tend to have the macbook fully charged most of the time, sitting on or around 100%, plugged in constantly. Would it use very little with this method?
Thanks
