[QUOTE="pendlewitch, post: 1334392, member: 214663"] Yes John T, that's what it says but it flies against all the technical advice from the manufacturers. Completely running your battery down and recharging it back to full isn't a charge cycle, it's a throw back to Nickel based batteries. You can actually do a charge cycle over several days by partially discharging and recharging. Full discharge/recharge is known to damage Lithium batteries See this thread [url]http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/iphone-hardware-accessories/255558-three-stage-iphone-battery-charging-cycle.html[/url] and also this from Apple which contradicts that document :o [url]http://www.apple.com/batteries/[/url] I hope all this makes sense. Cheers, Liam [/QUOTE]
