Why not have it plugged in continually?
Hello everyone,
I use this Toshiba Satellite laptop all day, from 6:30 in the morning until 5 pm. I then let it sleep until 7 pm and resume for a couple more hours before shutting it down.
I use the laptop to write and watch some YouTube videos (no video games, photo editing or other tasks).
My question is: would it be better to do partial charge and discharge (80-40 is what I'm doing now) repeatedly, or should I just do the 80-40 once and leave it plugged in?
I am worried that repeated charging discharging might shorten the battery life.
Thanks.
