[QUOTE="cptkrf, post: 1342776, member: 134861"] Lissen to the man. He speaketh the truth. If you are at a desk, leave the laptop plugged in. My Air (and my previous MPro) stay plugged up and charging 24/7, unless I am on the road. I sold my MacBook Pro after a year of use and the battery showed 94 percent capacity and had been plugged in 99% of its life. Once a month or so, I run the battery maintenance as recommended, or if I am on the road I just use it till it dies before recharging - same thing. Cycles are what kills batteries, not a trickle charge from a smart charger. [/QUOTE]
