If you are deliberately cycling a battery like you describe you are wearing it out, the simplest battery aging model is based on # charge cycles. What was the previous last thing common advice... NiCd batteries needed to be cycled to avoid "memory effects". That was always utter BS. Last edited by Darryl Ramm; 09-26-2022 at 11:23 PM. |

Re: HD Native Power Supply
That what I was thinking also. As for keeping the laptop plugged in, it seems that the batteries in modern laptops need to replaced in about 3-5 years regardless if they are allowed to run down regularly or remain fully charged all the time. If you are still worried, take the laptop out once in while (2 times per month) and let it run down the charge before plugging it back in, it should be fine.

Re: HD Native Power Supply
^^ and that iks a very long time, comparing to laptops 20yr ago which had user-swappable batteries that could only take 1-2 hours of real work and last for 1-2 years depending on use.
