Should your battery be removed from your laptop when it is plugged in? How to make a battery last?
battery January 25th, 2010I calibrate monthly, but is there anything else I can do?
Should my battery be removed from my laptop when I am using it at home, plugged into a wall socket?
When using a laptop as a desktop replacement the battery should not be left in for long periods of time. The laptop will over time discharge the battery. Remove the battery – making sure that it is charged to 40% and store it in a dry, warm place. Ensure that it is wrapped protectively and nothing will be dropped on it.
The battery should be re-installed every 3-4 weeks and allowed to fully discharge. Leaving a battery in storage for longer than this without using could cause the battery to fully discharge as the circuitry of the battery itself consumes power.
Leaving a battery in a laptop while using an electrical outlet for long periods of time will keep the battery in a constant state of charging up and that will reduce the life cycle of the battery.

When it’s done charging unplug the charger, don’t overcharge it. Plug the charger in when you actually need it not at 65%.

modern laptops have a bridge feature that makes that advice redundant.

Charge it to 100% then let it run until you get the low battery signal.

Of course! You should plug off the laptop battery from your laptop when you use the AC power supply. Nothing should be noticed except the charge and discharge.
Don’t drain your laptop battery. And charge it fully if you charge it.
