[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1933011, member: 396914"] Actually, what you are doing is shortening the battery life. Lithium batteries do NOT like being taken really low, and much prefer to be in the 60-80% range. As was said earlier, your Mac will take care of that if you leave it plugged in all the time. My MBP is, right now, "hovering" at 78%, plugged in. It takes about a week for the system to "learn" that you are leaving it plugged in, at which time it reduces from 100% to 80% and hovers there unless you go back to battery for a while. [/QUOTE]
