[QUOTE="johnnyFIVE, post: 959914, member: 135156"] Im not sure if any of those guides mention it but typically with batteries it is best to drain them all the way to 0% completely dead and let them fully charge to 100% uninterrupted, time to time. With how often your battery is taken off charge at halfway and charged to 80% then off again, its typically not good for the battery health and its charge memory. I could be wrong with laptops, but I always assume the same is true with laptop batteries as with most other batteries. [/QUOTE]
