[QUOTE="greylnx, post: 7636"] AFAIK, when using a lithium ion battery, it's a good idea to go through a full power cycle from time to time. It's not as important as with a NiCad, but it's a good idea nonetheless. I've also heard that it's not a good idea to let a lithium ion battery go completely flat. I can't really speak for the original topic of the thread, as I've never sat around on AC with the battery out of my laptop. Usually I run the battery down most of the way and then plug it in, just to make sure the battery is still in good condition. [/QUOTE]
